Inhale - Exhale

In the kingdom where life's cruelty reigns,

Comes a new tormentor, obsession's chains.

Trapped in his grasp, no escape in sight,

Each day a struggle, each moment a fight.

Though death and life may dance their dance,

In the present moment, find your chance.

To rise above, to break the chain,

And let serenity wash away the pain.

As life's troubles deepen, and darkness grows,

Obsession's friend arrives, adding to woes.

Feeling suffocated, with no reprieve,

Lost in a maze, unable to leave.

But amidst despair, a memory takes flight,

Of how you conquered death with a single rite.

A simple breath, a moment's respite,

Bringing solace in the darkest night.

So, amidst life's relentless hold and strain,

Remember the power of that simple refrain:

"Just remember to breathe," in the end,

For in that breath, your strength will ascend.
