please

hold on,

i whisper to myself.

see all of these

beads?

one hundred

and twenty-five.

you made it through

one hundred and

twenty-five days before

and you were alive and

even if it hurt, you were here.

all i'm asking for is just

one

more

day.

one more day, okay?

take it slow--breathe.

in, and out. breathe a little deeper.

focus, now. you can

make it, just one more day,

alright?

one more day--

it's all i'm

asking for.
