I Forgot to Breathe

I Forgot to Breathe

A Poem by Drowning In Reality



I Forgot to Breathe

Picking up the pieces
Of my shattered ego
Bouts of depression
Are a major b***h
Too often I forget to breathe
Inhale is cleansing
Exhale is relaxing
Inhale is enlivening
Exhale is releasing
Inhale is a talisman
Wards off my shadows
Exhale prepares me
For the journey ahead
I must awaken
For what lies ahead
Life is not always
As it seems
Sometimes it’s better
