Breathe
I know
You don't feel like it
Like you want to suffocate
Like you want to drown
Like you want all the air to escape your lungs
Finally letting your soul float on out
Finally being put to rest
I can't promise you it won't hurt
It will
But please
Just promise me you'll breathe
Stop and take a second
Breathe in
Breathe out
Even if I have to remind you every day to breathe
Even if you don't feel like it
Just breathe
You're going to ask yourself
"Why do I have to remind myself to do the simplest of things which is to breathe?"
It sounds ridiculous
But your anxiety
Your depression
Your bipolar
Your panic attacks
You only let it take control
You only let it cover your eyes
You only let it blind you
All because you chose not to breathe
Because you didn't feel like it
Just keep breathing
Let it remind you to live
Let it remind you that you deserve it
Let it remind you that you can cry
But just breathe
Don't stop breathing
Just breathe
Let your breath carry you instead of your mind
Your mind's tired after all
It's always running away
But never breathing
