Abyss

Sep 16, 2023

Feet dangle waiting upon the

edge

Precarious body goes no further

This fear etched in my mind

Boundless possibilities lie ahead

But movement keeps me motionless

Unknown world awaits outside the door

Trauma keeps me bound to lifeless living

Deep end shivers darkness abound

Beneath it lies freedom to exist

Swimming never my forte

Dying too young loses appeal

Fear of taunts is lackluster pursuit

Wish there to be a stir or something

Stillness is agonizing in my depths

Waves never occur without motion

Life is found in the abyss

Toe dips to begin the ripple effect
