Oh me, Oh life
I was born and thrust into a world I was not prepared for.
I learned to swim in a world that kept trying to drown me
but it was not easy.
I ended up in hospitals and rehabs
and was constantly surrounded by the smell of bleach and urine.
And yet...
I recognize that within me,
there lies a universe.
It thrives on poetry and follows the beat of 12/8.
It is full of flowers and blue skies
and the way one feels when he or she realizes what it means to be truly alive.
I was born and thrust into a world that I was not prepared for,
but now, I do not think this world is prepared for me.
