stuck
waist-deep
in
despond
sinking
slowly
into
slumber’s embrace
can’t
wake
move
breathe
feel
live
how can i
prove i’m
good enough
won’t you
let
me show
you
it could
be
brilliant
amazing
ingenious
razor-witted
but no
you say
too young
too
young
go away
what if
i say
please?
Lovely…..what if I say please? I loved the way it ended. I am feeling the child like innocence in ‘please’, so sweet!
