When the words you choose for yourself
cause ripples in your calm,
the waves begin to crash inside 
& all control is lost to a pull 
that feels larger than you.
You're frightened into darker depths;
the air is lost, the sky is gone.
But as you're sinking,
you see a thread that gets thicker 
with confidence,
hold onto this 
& let it pull you up 
until you break the surface 
of a reality that hurts.
