"Any problem in the world can be solved by dance" -James Brown


Our eyes are weary

and our hearts sore

And we've become friends

with the bottom

of too many bottles

We're struggling 

to keep our heads

above the black ocean

But if anyone asks

tell them we're fine

I am a sophmore at Croatan High School. This poem came to me at a time when I was not fine at all and writing down my feelings during this time helped me overcome that rut I was in.
