I’m tired.
I want to sleep.
Drift off in the endless abyss.
Going to sleep is hard.
But waking up is even harder.
Let me close my eyes.
The ocean swirled.
Beckoning me forward.
Submerging me under.
I felt alive.
Salt water filled my lungs.
I could breathe.
The world might’ve tried to squish me between its fingers.
But I stitched myself back together.
People didn’t want to understand, but I flashed a grin and kissed her lips.
