“Flailing”

3rd Poem from my Virtual Poem Gallery

I am a woman that lives in between two halves of her life

I live with the sky, that can boast varying colors

Depending on its whimsy mood

It can either be smooth soaring

Bouncing and through, the differing shapes of fluffy white

Or with turbulence, with pelting icy drops or stone-like pellets

 And then, there are days where I live with the dark blue depths

Sometimes, it only reaches up to my ankles, on a sunny day

Other times, it’s a rushing river I struggle within

But on most days, I’m trying to stay afloat

The empty bottom, fueling my anxiety, as I lose strength and sink

My days vary, what I know I’ll stop doing

Is hoping help, from those who are both seeing and blind

I’ll just allow the storms and curved looming walls crash and thrash me

I’ll let be the currents and the wind move me dizzily

I’ll just ride with the constant flow, like I horribly usually do.
