Growth

My first cry echoed out in a metallic hospital room. The magnolias and dogwoods were in full bloom. Through the years I grew hardy and strong. A car crash enlightened me to my own mortality. It was the beginning of the end. Little by little I lost my grip on life, spiraling on a downward trend. Now I embrace a cold winter that will never become spring.
