I am a brittle baby reborn, shattered spirit, lost soul. No ones child, no ones daughter now. My standing ground - gone - my standing ground - where I plant my feet. What harvest will I reap without my mum and dad, a bitter harvest without nourishment, no joy, Happiness a ghost to me. I am lost and so terribly alone. Strangely I am weakened, without strength and my back bone will not hold me. You mum were my secret strength. Your love bound me, supported me, lifted me, made me.
My standing ground is gone and I have not the willingness to stand alone.
