    I'm in Charge of My Life

     No matter what life throws at you,
    No matter who hurt your heart.
    Life is worth the effort
    If you'll only give a good start

    Pain has been in my life for sure
    Ones I thought should have loved me
    Delivered the worst of sorrow and scars
    But my strengths have set me free

    He can not hurt me anymore
    It has nothing to do with age
    I've put it all in it's proper place
    Now my life is my own stage

    Smiles form inside and out
    And yes, sadness is there too
    But now I know just where I stand
    And it isn't because of just you

    I have taken charge of things
    My head is not in the past
    Determinations and faith are my rocks
    And no past will interfer at last.

    Swan

    It sure is great when we become the captains of our own fate.

    Thank you Trevon. Life experiences have touched me but I make of my life what I choose it to be.

    I'm sorrry, I don't know how I missed this comment. I've not been here for a very long time. Thank you for your sweet comments.

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
