But this is not prose or poetry.
This is for when I lose to sadness,
When my heart twists,
And I just want to whimper the whole night through,
Or curl up on my bed.
This is for when breathing becomes a chore,
and the tears start to form.
Deep breaths, deep breaths, I try
And it does help
But only for a moment
Because in the brief second my head clears
Something leads me back to where I was
Deep breaths, deep breaths...
Please...
Just--
