I lived

 This one is a bit of a cheat. I wrote it last year when I was still in Kokomo and hating life. A lot has changed since then. I don't feel this way any more, but I remember being in that moment. This poem reminds me how bad it was. I never want to be there again. 


This inertia that I'm trapped in...

It swallows me whole

Pushing me under

Pulling me down


They say drowning 

is silent.

No thrashing or fight-

Just surrender


I want to live.
