Closed eyes
Open a dark secret space
Moments go by, and
You've forgotten to breathe again.
You're trying too hard again.
Your fears are blinding you
From the light life around you
Remember the things you've forgotten
You couldn't forget their haunting
If you neglect them
You'll grow weaker (they'll win)
If you forget them
You'll only move slower (now run)
All your dreams you wish would be
They could free you from this reality, but
You've forgotten to breathe again.
You're trying too hard again.
If only you could see
You don't have to change a thing
Your fears are binding you
If only you would drop that pack
You wouldn't have to panic
If you neglect them
You'll grow stronger (you'll win)
If you forget them
You'll move faster (now run)
Just breathe the light life around you
Just see the truth that is you

I closed my eyes today to try and calm downbut I noticed I wasn't breathing. I was stressing out about some things. Once I drew my next breath it felt as if I could feel all the air in the whole room. I felt like I was in a pool of thick water. I'm guessing this sensation came because of the release of stress and the new oxygen released into my blood, but it was such I beautiful feeling. This poem doesn't do it justice, but it was the best I could do...
