"I know how it feels to be completely alone and helpless, and the last thing you want to hear in that situation is, 'It's going to be OK. ' The only thing that seems to really help is that someone else who has felt that low expressing those feelings"


Through the water
Ever so fast
Rushing past
Me
My body aerodynamic
Cutting through
Like a hot knife
And butter
Pierced
I love myself
A beautiful creature
But wait...
I'm not a mermaid

I am absolutely in love with the water. If I were to envision myself as an animal. it'd be a mermaid.
