Lifejackets

Less than one minute read time.

Some days I feel I'm drowning

sinking way down low.

Some days I feel like giving up

and think I'd like to go.

But, looking up above me

I see a gleaming light.

I swim and kick and struggle

and push with all my might.

As I break upon the surface

I gasp and gulp for air.

I look all around me

and can't believe what's there.

Floating on the ocean

as far as I can see

lots of coloured lifejackets

waiting just for me.

As soon as I get near one

they wrap themselves around

and pull my weary body

to some safer ground.

"Where do they come from?"

I think I hear you say.

Well, they come from the people

I talk to every day.

People who understand

this journey we are on.

Whether it is short

whether it is long.

So, thank you my friends

that's all I'd like to say.

And, I hope I'll be a lifejacket for you someday!

Indie you are my inspiration!
