[Free Verse] Independent Research: How to Swim Through Life #RainbowCreativeClub

No fins
No gills
Not even a tail

We who should have come from the sea
For some reason
Now
Are swimming through every day

Using just a little bit of webbing
And our lungs

Sometimes
When it gets hard to breathe, it must be because
We are remembering
How we used to breathe

No one teaches us
"How to swim through life"

Flutter kick
Backstroke
Breaststroke

Letting the current take us
Floating along
Talking slowly to the clouds and finding peace

Attacked by the waves
Sometimes sinking
Enduring the pain and becoming a little stronger

If you get a little tired
And want to rest
You can just watch the sky from the shore

My conclusion is
"As long as you don't drown, that's fine"

While longing for our former home
Everyone today
Is somehow managing to swim
