Ocean Of Emotions


Her head is spinning as she

Falls slowly into a never ending

Plumet of fear and desperation.

She floats in the pools of

Teenage emotions that most

People brush off or ignore

 

But those emotions are real

You’ll never see the truth behind

Those blissful blue eyes.

 

The pounding and penetrating

Rage that brews beneath the

Skin of her sturdy exterior

Would be fit enough to

Slit steal.

She doesn’t see her full

Potential.

 

Little does she know that beneath

All that rage and fear, she is

Strong,

Brave,

And ruthlessly clawing her

Way up in life.

 

She floats with the fish and the whale.

She moves with the waves and the sand.
