It was never purpose

Or some virtue

That brought me forward

But my character flaws

My unlikable traits

That served me

Through darker times

And now

That I find myself

Facing another climb

Steeper still

Those flaws

The cracks in the whole

Are rising

Returning from rest

And slumber

Until I cease to be

The person I am

And become instead

Force and power

Stubbornness

And defiance

To come through

Another challenge – Caroline A. Slee
