Still Holding On

I may have held on to this because it's the only thing noone else has wanted that was mine. And it is mine. Most of what was good is gone Christmas Birthdays Youth And Joy I am the performer incomplete I laugh I smile Without thought or motivation Hide the true jewels of my life Daughter - Sunshine Husband - Fire Sister - Wisdom Friends few. These fractured pieces left by scavengers are still mine And cherished. Tara M. Barrett 5/28/10
