I Can't Breathe Under Water

Sometimes, I still feel the need to die.
.
Aquatic references have always gotten the pen flowing, but I'm not sure for how long. I think I'm going to abandon this all over again. I know I could never stop writing. But, speaking up has only ever been a dream for me.
.
I will always fear what people think of me. It is a habit that never dies, no matter how much time I give it to drown. But even so, I speak to you again as an outlet. And if someone comes back to hate me for it, I will try my best to stand strong and not be harrassed again.
.
I refuse to be pushed from the things I love. This time, if I leave; it will be because I wanted to.

((this is another poetry book because I just oh so love writing these kinds of things for some reason!))
((most of the poems have their own topics but every poem is going to have an aquatic/water theme.))
((also because these poems were written when I was at a bad spot, some will be a bit overwhelming for some readers.))
.
((there will be warnings on poems that cover darker topics/state more mature content! though most of what I wrote is PG13 I will leave notices on the poems that are more mature so please be aware of the more sensitive poems and skip them if they make you uncomfortable!))
.
((I hope you enjoy reading these, I'd even suggest my older books if you end up enjoying but my style might have changed a bit due to how long it has been.))
((anyhow, enjoy!!))
