Just Breathe.

That's what I tell myself everyday.

Inhale. Exhale.

Air goes in then out.

I feel the burning sensation coming from my lungs.

Screaming at me.

I suddenly can't breathe.

I'm coughing violently. Wheezing.

I want to puke.

My heart is racing. I can feel the thumping through my body.

Make it stop.

I'm looking at someone. They tell me.

In then out

Over and over and over again.

My heart rate slows down.

I'm no longer breathing irregularly. It's in sync.

I'm alive.

My god.

I can breathe normally again.

But no.

Just wait.

It'll come back.

This will happen again.

You are my prisoner.

I will haunt you forever.

I'll make sure it hurts next time.

It'll be worse.

You'll cry. I know it.

You know what the best part is?

I live within you. You can't get rid of me.

I'll annoy you.

Every.

Single.

Day.

For the rest of your life.

The incurable disease.

With so much pain and tears, sincerely

Asthma.
