　　I've packed up all I can fit

　　To take my home elsewhere

　　This house gives me nightmares

　　But I need to rest up

　　For the trip of a lifetime

　　For Today, I Breathe Again is a poem and companion game for the Game Boy handheld console.

　　First published as part of the Meditations Project on January 30th, 2019, this work is a contemplation of past fears, future hopes, and the half-lit hours where they begin to overlap.

　　The poem can be found in the game's files, or can be downloaded separately.

　　(CONTENT WARNING: Both the poem and game contain artistic representations of domestic abuse.)

　　Please be considerate. Due to the autobiographical nature of this work, it may be difficult for me to speak about the game or respond to messages about it.

　　If this game reminds you of your own relationship or the relationships of your friends, please consider these domestic abuse resources:

　　A quarter-century ago, I first breathed

　　For today, I breathe again
