“Tidal Wave”
by JA I have been drowning in my own thoughts. Trapped in a tidal wave that I can’t escape. Kicking and screaming. Gasping for air. Until suddenly I’d surface. Catching my breath, air filling my lungs. But it’s no use. Each time I surface this anchor pulls me down. Just a never ending cycle of misery. Yet once again I have found myself drowning. But this time it’s different. I’m exhausted, tired of fighting. So for one last time, I’m sinking. JA was a senior in Ms. Barbour's Poetry Today class in the Fall Semester. She looks forward to graduating.
