don't do that don't
tell me that i'm not
trying i swam
through 12 oceans
and drowned in every
single one of them
but each time the water
seeped into my lungs
and the fish started
swimming in my blood
stream i spat it all up
and continued swimming
i am not a life raft
i will not pop in the
middle of the ocean i
am a fucking ship
and i promise you i will
make it to shore
alive.
