Literature Text

have I let my bitterness
get the best of me?

sour tongue and teeth:
I've bitten into this
lemon tree;
hanging free,
but dangling legs,
scared I'll fall

and I'm stretching out my arms,
but all I catch are leaves,
and all I can do is recuperate-
apologize and try again.
but all I want is to get back
to doing what I should have been.
wrote a poem. been a while since I did. started a new folder for next year- my senior year. It's both exciting and scary. but I'll do my best.
I just want to make sure I leave without leaving behind myself.
