I feel a push and pull inside of me, Deep in the pit of my soul. Roots stretch to the ends of my stomach, Tangled with bones A whirlpool, A quicksand, An angry ocean Pulling, sucking everything in.

I feel something deep within It feels familiar, But otherworldly, Lurking in the pits of my chest and stomach.
