I Need To Breathe
A day of pain, a day of unrest, I can feel I’m getting stressed. My life has changed, my
life’s uncertain, will I ever rest. My phone rings, my door knocks, I leave to rest. I
need my space I need to breath, the walls are closing in, my heart beats faster my blood
start to boil. Surrounded by walls, my curtains drawn. I need to breath I need to leave. I
open a door I open a window. Yet I still can’t breathe and need to leave. I feel I’m
growing, the wall closing, I need to run I need to breathe, will I ever be at ease. My
fists are clenched, my face is red, don’t come near me i may be mean. Now I’m angry now
I’m mad. I need to leave I need to flee. I need the space to shed and bleed, I need to
feel the pain that I have created. I need some space I need to race away from this place,
away from any trace, any place where I have a face. My anger grows beyond belief, I
shudder to think what I could be, the rage inside just resides, until it’s time to
collide, with anyone whose by my side, I’ll blow, I’ll puff, I’ll shout and scream, will
you get away from me. It’s time for me to take a ride, to a place I can decide, I need to
breathe I need to leave, I need to find my life indeed.
