Over My Head Poem by Alexzia Ferdinand

Been holding my breath for so long
even after everything.
shunned the life raft
scorned urgent hands
lungs shut, sealed tight
through wave
after wave
of furious salty
ocean. treading
something, toeing
a line,
somewhere.
Golden blazing sun
soars, sets, sighs
upon me,
the alone one
stubborn struggler
loneliest one yet.
Been holding my breath for so long
even still,
even after everything.
There's no ending
this one.
