Coco

She wanted amazing things

so she ran towards the sunset

thinking she could grasp the shining light in her hands

and hold it forever

forever.

She found herself on a cliff

I think I live upon a bridge

I’m too afraid to cross.

I’ve set up camp for the time being

(Now so much time’s been lost.)

The water’s too far down to drink

And the fish are out of reach.

I do what I’m told

I have friends

I try my best

But it isn’t enough

I ninety feels bad

A failure

But for some people it’s a win

I don’t want to squash their victory

I don’t know how to feel
