Dear Esther,

I'm standing unsteadily in this rocking boat,
On my own,
Trying my best to stay afloat

But the enraged tidal wave is far too strong,
While the ferocious wind lashes me till I'm sore

Oh, I've been dragged along,
Into the unfathomable depths of the cerulean waters below

I'm trashing about,
Drowning and out of oxygen,
Yet not a single soul hears my hapless shouts

I wish I could just be hauled up back to the warm shore,
Where pain and sorrow shall dwell no more

But the world has already given up on me,
Leaving me sinking in the deep sea,
With my treacherous body...

I've had enough.
I've decided to give up on it as well.

Quinn

A/N : I hope this was a teeny better than the previous two that was just the definition of cringe-worthy...or maybe the entire book. But thank you for putting up with my horrid work all this time!
