I sometimes forget to breathe,
But that's okay because I know I'm right.
I sometimes forget to listen,
But that's okay because I know my stance.
I sometimes forget to see,
But that's okay because I know what I want.
I sometimes lie to myself,
That it's okay,
But it's not,
Because I need to breathe for me
Because I need to listen for me to be right
And I need to open my eyes to see the lie I've been building up around me.
-written when your fantasies come crashing down.
