…your floundering
Drowning life and your effort to save yourself,
Treading water, dancing the dark turmoil,
Looking for something to give.”
― Ted Hughes
Sometimes you just have to breathe, and breathe again.
Wait for the storm to roll over you,
without letting it pull you under,
drown you in the depths …
because then *they win
and I’ll be damned if
I’m going to let *them win again
no. *they’ve taken enough
seared into my soul enough
ruined too many things
…
so, NO, not today…
Today I’m gonna let this storm
batter and beat me down,
but I will NOT let it
beat me under
it will NOT
end me
