Remember to breathe- dedicated to nikki-in response

by jess   Aug 10, 2004


I find it hard to wake,
But the sun says its morning,
I look out my window,
To see the clouds are daunting.
The cup isn’t half empty,
There is nothing there,
Nothing to be consumed,
In the mirror not even my own stare.
Another false alarm,
This time I’m not going to let myself die,
As I’m sitting alone,
And softly cry.
I don’t know where to find it,
I don’t even know what I’m looking for,
Maybe there is nothing,
And I can search no more.
Wasting time by being alive,
Teacher tell me what’s my lesson,
But while messed up on the inside,
On the outside shows no expression.
Is it worth it can you even hear me?
You don’t notice me, you don’t look,
It won’t be long, I will soon be free.
Then she leans over,
My very bestest friend,
With words of wisdom,
And feelings that comprehend.
She whispers in my ear,
‘ I will always be by your side,’
With a single tear,
And no emotions to hide.
‘ I know it’s hard,
But remember to breathe,
I will always be here,
I will never leave.’
