9. can't breathe

i can’t breathe.

everything’s just
bringing me down,
pain in my stomach
it just won’t go away
and life continues to
attack all at once, i’m
fresh off a test that i
didn’t do my best on,
i hope i don’t fall off,
hard to move forward.

so uneasy, i’m always
just so queasy, and i
keep getting told to
just breathe, but it’s
not working, now my
brain feels fried and
i can’t close my eyes,
the curse of the month
rages on and doesn’t
even give me a break.

break’s the right word,
because i feel like i’m
gonna break one day,
all of this pain will just
give way to a fall, and
i’ll topple over and not
get myself back up, i’ll
spend all my days just
laying in bed, i’ll never
find productivity again.

i can’t breathe.
