Immortal

 

I wanted to live my life for myself

Like a single pearl ,

beautiful and pure

Undiscovered,

Laying on some shore.

 

Like an immortal,

Lost on planet earth

Not a person or a human

or a woman or a girl.

 

I was terrified of feelings

growing, and fluttering,

Living and breathing

quietly breeding

beneith my breast

 

I didn't want this mess-

I did not ask for it,

I wanted only to never need a thing,

And to never cry

Over anything.

I Cry

over things that make no sense, have no solution, or the cause exists in the past. I dry my eyes, take a deep breath and go do small tasks very slowly. Works for me - Stella
