I cant breathe, I cant breathe, oh my god I cant breathe

Just breathe…push down the nausea, bring up the breath
123..123…123…123…123..123…123…123...123...
Its OK, its OK, they don't judge, its OK.

It stopped.
Ive stopped.

Glug… Glug…the lazy bubbles of the pump in my fishbowl.
I'm under water, staring through the glass.
Why am I here?
What am I doing?
It doesn't matter.
Nothing matters.
As long as its stopped.
Nothing else matters as long as its stopped.
Stopped.
Stop.
