Hysterical
Don’t get pulled under
Don’t fall back
Don’t get tripped up
In the nest laid out
Intended to snag you
Don’t stop moving
Don’t think of any of it
Don’t wait & wait & wait
For whatever told you to wait
It’s not coming back
& don’t look at me like that
don’t look at anything
don’t breath
please
because you can’t
& you won’t
& I told you so
Because I knew
& I said it
& you didn’t listen
You never do
Don’t be surprised
Don’t act like you didn’t know
Don’t be so serious
We all die in the end
Don’t laugh so much
Don’t cry too often
Don’t get pulled under
It’s all a mess
Hysteria
Hysterical
Just…
Just don’t
