breathe

Early in the morning
you can hear
the land breathe in
and exhale.

Just Calm Down!

Calm the beating
in your chest

I know you're anxious
about the message

you just wrote
it's only words

what's the harm?
they could change

and challenge you if
they were to come true

why worry
why let your chest race

from the inside
it's locked into place

varying tempos
thoughts

are running through
making you dream

breath in deeply
calmly

what is there to worry
about anyway?

thick air

Choke on the air

too thick to breath

                        it sits heavily

comes to rest 

            in our lungs

heave
           with heavy


discomfort
