The suburban lawns were held together with dams and waterways

Artificial constructions meant to keep these artficial constructions together

As these lawns have been allowed to grow into a forest, the plants have breached the dams

The water of my emotions has come spilling into my mind

I am too much myself

My emotions flow through me. They displace and destroy everything in their path

These are the waters that have always been here. They simply haven't been allowed to flow where they belong in a very long time

The dam has broken, the flood has come

I struggle to breath. I feel adrift within myself. I feel as though it shall last forever

But the flood shall not last forever. The waters shall calm. The rivers shall flow. The waterways shall route themselves proper

The forest shall survive, and the garden may flourish from this forest

The flood shall pass, and I shall rebuild
