Growing

 Why does it hurt so bad some days?
I'm just wandering through life in a daze
It doesn't take much to trigger the emotions
They come like waves, they come like oceans

Deep and wide and crashing into me
Like a riptide, theyre dragging me out to sea
I could drown here, as metaphorical as it seems
Its the truth for real, I'm bursting at the seams

As my lungs are fighting for air, a dying will to live hits
A base need to survive, this is what keeps me going
And so this is my life, from okay to an emotional blitz
To a panicked fight for life. But hey, maybe I'm growing.
