rebirth

Immersed, dampened through with this pervasive feeling of truth and I am not managing this well.

I am unable to peer into my reflection without spite and discontent for the creature I've become.

Strung from a vessel traveling through flames, I was barely able to reach ground.

Now I crawl.

I slide through the mud.

I dry these gills and hope to walk again.

No apple to chew and no garden to enslave me.

I am just trying to learn to be me again without hurting those who love me.
