Feeling Low;
Not sure if it's any lower than before.

Heavy Expectations;
Weights strapped to backs of unwilling divers.

Can't ascend too quickly for fear of the bends.
Can't descend indefinitely or I'll never resurface again.

It's unavoidable some say;
Persuaded paths led me the furthest I've ever been away.

Just one tree in the forest of many;
Suspended solitary in swaying breeze
Waiting to be turned into a magazine.
