Hi! It’s my 13th birthday today and I am soo happy! I’m a teenager! So this post is a bit different from my normal posts, But it is still a post! This was to show that is person isn’t really dead, but almost. Being 6 feet under means that you are dead and gone, so 5 feet would mean close. When you fear death too much, you stop living. I thought this would be a good metaphor for this particular idea.
I hope you enjoy!

5 feet under
And I’m
Slowly sinking down
5 feet under
This is
A place for me to drown
In my tears
In my fears
In this violent silence
And I’m
Slowly sinking down
Until
I’m 5 feet under
And
Buried under thoughts and curses
I’m 5 feet under
And I’m
Struggling to survive
In this ocean full of shards
Of this frightful foul future
Rescue me
Pull me out
Cause I’m already
5 feet underground
