well...
it won't stop
you think you're at the top
it makes you blind
you think that you are kind
you soon won't breathe
if you don't take the sword
out of it's sheathe...
try to breathe

I am very unsure what Johnny Depp or pirates have to do with this poem but it is fanastic; it looks so simple but then I felt ... something like sadness but more intense as I can almost hear those words being whispered from one girls mouth to another trying to convience her that this is it, this is how you are meant to live your life.
Powerful!

Thank you & Best of luck
Stay safe
