Just Breath


“Just breathe!”

He yelled

“Stop being dramatic.”

“It's not a big deal.”


“Just breathe.”

“What is your problem!”

Can I just be enough for you?

I try my best to be a good kid

When will you see me that way?

 

“Just breathe.”

I try to breath but my lungs won't allow me to

Deep breaths become very short 

But I didn't do anything 

Why do i deserve this


“Just breathe.”


You are my father 

I shouldn't have to put up a door around you

You're supposed to make me feel safe 

God knows i deserve to feel safe 

It's not the fact that you scare me

Cause “You don't.”


Just breathe

Because I just moved a rocket


One moment is okay and the next its not


Everyday your opinions are changing


But i'm the brat


Just breathe!


Because I love you


Just a hug and a kiss on the head

And it's easy to forgive you
