I am stronger than this.
I am stronger than having
my hands and legs tied
and ready to commit suicide.
I have poems ready to burst
deep down from the inside.
Dreams that are waiting to
be chased. A light that is
ready to shine over my
shadows and dark. I am
stronger than this. Water
will not defeat me tonight.
I refuse to give up and die.
I want to exist. To swim to
the surface and make it alive
to the water's shore. I want
to love and live* ~
