Take a Deep Breath

Take a Deep Breath I need to take a deep breath If I don’t it will lead to my death Overwhelming everything seems to be It’s the big picture I need to see Most issues are just not that bad But sometimes my reactions are pretty sad The little things bother me so much It would upset me if you called me Dutch Sometimes my pain is very great It makes my soul so full of hate For serenity I woefully long Every action of mine feels so wrong Life sometimes feels like just a dream However things are getting better it would seem For in my life I am yearning for more A better existence, I’m knocking on that door Whatever it takes I am surely willing To have love in my heart would be filling For in every moment after I wake It would be calming and give me a break
