What are you doing?

Why do you fear?

He can’t do anything –

He’s not here.

Reach out, steady yourself.

It’s alright, just grip the pole.

You can do this. Easy, easy!

Just breathe it all out.

Why is your chest so tight? You’re safe.

There’s a regular rhythm to this,

A reason for each reaction –

Be calm! You’re safe in bed!710Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8RAArX1aX

Dear Lord, he’d scare you less710Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtm4AJwj5X

If he stood outside your window!

Come to your senses, come to your senses;

Nothing can get at you here –

Lord, but how you gnaw at your fears!

He’s not out to get you, you know.

This is all just results and reactions.

But what will you do when you see him again?

Could you possibly hold a frigid façade?

Or will red-hot anger melt it all down?

No, no, shh, these are thoughts for nightmares!

Quiet, be still! No good will come of this!

it’s choking me

my thoughts entwine

710Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVP8fuTZG3

i can’t do this, can’t,

can’t live like i’m okay and die at night.

but where could i find sanity?

to what refuge can i run?

it is memory that entraps me; memory i must then release.

Compress yourself to fit the space.

It’s a tight fit; you’ll have to shed something…

Ah, let me just banish these memories;

You can only keep what you need,

And you don’t need him.
