Fourth Place

"I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become." Quote by _Carl Jung Sometimes, in life I feel without, lacking what I am all about; where is my sense of self I sigh ... Oh, who am I ! Useless with identity lost, my uniqueness and selfdom tossed; a death has left my life awry ... Oh, who am I ! My existence is in question, this spiral down my obsession; must find my wings so I can fly ... Oh, who am I ! I am so much less and a mess, things are going wrong I confess; must define and create or die ... Oh, who am I ! My character is buried deep, will find the best of it to keep; I battle a pit of why try ... Oh, who am I ! But like a flower am blooming, a new self I am becoming; gone away my sad lullaby ... Oh, who am I !

heartfelt & uplifting write, my friend - thanks for the place in your last contest. Mum had a really bad day at the weekend, where she hardly ate or drank anything all day, but she's perked up again. She's a fighter, bless her. Hope all's well with you & Snuggles x
