I've Lost Myself

But I Will Find Myself Again!

I have completely been defeated!

I have survived a lot

I have never swam in the dirty waters found in the grimy gutters as I continue to crawl beside the road

I lick my wounds and I hang my head down low from the vicious attacks and heavy blows

I defeated the wolves and battled my demons but could not escape the venom of the poisonous snake

I can hear the scream of the war cry deep within my soul I remind myself you were a warrior once and you will be a warrior once more

About the Creator

J.W. Baird

Who Am I?

I keep asking myself. I spent half of my life as a single mother. Pushing myself to be the strong independent individual that I have always been. My kids have grown and my life seems turned upside down.

I now search to find myself!
