Self-Therapy on a Ledge - Short Form Poetry

breathe.in, then out. slowly now.

know that this is but a moment, and as all moments do, it will pass. 
look. its already passing.

soon it will be but another part of your past and you, 
you will still be here. still be here, okay?
I know there are days when you feel like you are on a train thats soon to derail
and you can't imagine jumping from the tracks but you're not sure if you're afraid
or just not quite brave enough.

give yourself permission to be either, or both.
