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
