It’s at times of rejection
Where I started questioning
If I had done this differently
Would I be what I dream of
I’ve been head deep in my thoughts for so long
That when the letter of rejection arrived
I was pulled out to breathe for the first time in a while
But the breath is heavy
Heavy with fear
Do I dive back in
Just to close my eyes?
Or keep breathing till the air becomes clear
I’ve wasted so much of my time
Planning my life around the acceptance
The one that never came
What do I do now?
