Roll

Bubbles flow
past me
upended
underwater
and I struggle
against the water
plastic digging into my thighs
body betraying me
as I desperately
try
to roll.

About the time I got stuck in a kayak but also a metaphor for life, ya know?

Kai

Strong

Do not define me as strong
because I have overcome obstacles

A person could do a set number of push ups
but be as weak as they were yesterday

So do not define me as strong
because I have overcome obstacles
Define me as strong
because I could overcome them again with ease

H.R.H.

Suicidal me
wants to die like the Queen

"peacefully in her sleep"

which
(let's face it)

is not very realistic
for a 19 year old.

Inked

Tattoos are nice.


                                  I wish the rest of life
                                     could be illustrated.

I have two now, but I'd like more.

Handwritten

My handwriting looks
like a mix of
my Mum and Dad's.

I feel like it fits.

But sometimes

I wish it was different.

I guess that's how it is with a lot of things
