Supergirl
Another failed attempt.
I already regret my weaknesses.
my heart sinks.
my head listens to the mocking sea of voices;
Down
Down
Down
Drowning
Drowning
Drowning
I face the next wave of ridicule.
I HAVE TO
think of new ways to stay strong;
how tomorrow will be better.
I imagine all of the good in the world.
Supergirl. I shut my eyes tight and think of Supergirl.
She is strong. I am strong, too.
