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
Wow! Empowering!
Thank you so much!
