Breathe
Don't hurt me
Please,
Not again
Breathe
Close your eyes
Block it out
Don't let the panic
Set in
Breathe
Count to ten
Everything will be alright.
Just don't think about it,
Push it down,
Shove it aside
Lock it away
Throw the key
Fling it!
Heart racing
Palms sweating
No,
Breathe
Don't let those monsters
Consume your mind
Breathe,
I tell myself.
Don't let the panic set in;
Don't think about how
I'm not
A supermodel's size
For my worth
Is not equal
To the numbers
On the measuring tape
Or on that weighing scale
Of mine
Remember,
Do not let those monsters
Consume my mind
