Drowning

Drowning in a sea of uncertainty

It’s nothing new, they say

Nothing new in the history of the world,

Where humans, these weird animals that we happen to be,

Are plagued by mental torment of their own making.

As we progress and grow,

Many of these uncertainties just adapt and change,

Like a Boggart to a new Patronus.

We try and try to convince others that we have it together,

Not accepting the simple truth that everyone

Has their own Boggarts to face,

Lest they be dragged into a sea of fear.

All we can do is keep happy memories in our heart

And continue putting our best selves forward.
