To Breathe

Your life once seemed so easy
You could breathe
Your life does not want to keep living
Your mind says
Keep breathing
Breathe in
Breathe out
The tears shouldn't fall
They shouldn't come at all
Remember 
Keep breathing
Breathe in
Breathe out
Don't say you will fail
For I will fail you if you don't decide 
To Breathe
