i needed air, i needed to breathe, i needed someone to tell me that i'm okay and i don't need to feel so anxious every morning. for i, i feel like crying because i'm me, because i'm here alone, sitting with these demons that call themselves my friends, my gods, my saviors. my breath hitched rereading these words, i felt my heart clutch, and my brain was exploding over and over again. i need to breathe, not even being outside can do that anymore.
