Angry frog

frog in the throat, scratching. crawling.

i’m sorry. such a gross feeling.

frothy feeling. crawling. creeping.

trying to get out? or trying to stay in? doesn’t matter

cold or warm

or both

can’t tell up from down but

Can tell you’ll be okay

Eventually

it might not be soon

it might take forever

But you’ll be okay eventually

right?

we do what we have to

I’m sorry you have to

distract yourself if centering won’t work

or center yourself if distractions won’t work

keep going, keep growing

The only way out is through.

Sorry for the cliche.

but stay, please? It wouldn’t be the same here without you
