Drowning

Finding True Self-Love and Self-Worth

By Kayla LoyPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

She swam through life barely breathing.

Always scared to take that extra leap out of the water.

The girl inside was suffocating.

Her lungs filled with nothing but water.

Struggling for oxygen. Grasping for air.

Not knowing if she’ll ever reach the top.

Then one day she finally rose like a Great White.

And jumped up out of that poisonous water that was holding her down.

Discovering there’s only one way to live along the crazy ride of life.

A satisfying life isn’t a life at all.

But to live an extraordinary life without limits is the only life worth living.
