Breathe

Stairs!
Tough, yeah?
Count the stars
Steady your heart
Sturdy your feet, move!
You can walk on water
Shape-shift through the blockages
Heave, look forward and pump some air.
Dreams of mazes and tight spaces
Depression and dark places.
When the panic attacks
Take it small and slow
Through the steeps
Pause, and
Breathe!
