Life Strings

By Morgan Hannah, Life & Style Editor

When life becomes a test of endurance
rather than a slow-painted picture
When life is like a corset
clinging to sadness is comfortable

When everything is coloured over by fiction
every fine step is new
When reality hits life
With each leather string
one after the other pulled together
The air is restricted              b r e a t h

And a new chapter begins to open
a waterfall silently falls
When life becomes ambiguous…
take off the corset
