This can’t be me
Trapped in a valley low
I can’t breathe

An escape is what I need
Looking around but no where to go
This can’t be me

Wishing for something new to be
A new way to be shown
I can’t breathe

Looking up, trying to see
Where am I? I don’t know
This can’t be me

No one can hear my plea
I’ll keep trying, though
I can’t breathe

Letting go is the key
Reaching up to no longer be alone
This isn’t me
I can’t breathe

I wrote this last year when I was going through a hard time. I am no longer in that dark place and am grateful to the people in my life who helped me to get out of there.I love my life and all that are in it.
