Sink or Swim

March 19, 2019

Throw yourself off that cliff

plunge into the swallowing depths

the unknown

the cold and unforgiving.

Light travels in waves above you

but is the struggle to grasp them worth it?

The deepening sea looks welcoming as you sink.

Stuck at the crossroads

here the seconds matter

to Sink or to Swim.
