Swamped in an ever consuming sea
Wondering where this life will lead... What it will be
Sometimes I keep my head above the water
Sometimes I sink like bricks and mortar
The feeling of being consumed
Saving me is not presumed
I try to be my own life raft
Writing is certainly my creative craft
Saving myself from drowning
I can see a bright future ... Crowning

Hair.
So, it STARTED with the tugging, Fine hairs drifting to the ground, Pulling at my scalp a bit, Breaking off without a sound.
