Water Baby

Water babies
maybe
born
that way

But baby,
I ain't
no swimmer,
Okay?

I don't do deep water,
I don't shallow end,
I don't dive, don't strive
to be like Tom Daley

But underwater,
In the past two years,
H2O
has sort of got to me

A new world?
Dreaming fish?
I thought I'd only see them
On my dinner dish.

Don't be afraid to look out
From your comfort zone,
Jack has taken the plunge,
Done it on his own.

And you know what?
Water can be fun!
So call me crazy, but
I love the water, baby.

My limbs glide through the water, I feel like I am full of grace, Over and over goes my mind, Steady steady is my pace. I zone out Lost in my thought, Limbs extending, Body taut.

It All Comes Down To Confidence

Unique

Sometimes I find myself asking, "am I really different in a special way?" This question came up again today. I'm not really all that special, I don't have very good talents.

Just The Way I Am

You want to run away. Get away. From all that's dying. Gone and grey. Get away so my heart. Once plump and full. Beating like it knew. Can become brand new. So I can wish and dream.

Me

*apologies for the swear word, but it came from the heart* I am the product of a love that once existed I am what they made me, how they shaped me.
