Yes...No

Yes I was there, an eager actor on my stage Yes I rebelled in heart, purity, love, rage Yes I battled growing, I'd hoped I’d remain young Yes I put off knowing, metamorphosis begun No I wasn’t always, reluctant of the crossing No I welcomed time, mind and beliefs tossing No I wasn’t carefree, seems was not my fate Yes I believe in love, I’ve always hated hate faced with my mirror image, yes I have arrived Child, adult, elderly, I’ve accomplished, I’ve survived So what? Yes I did, No! I’ll fight on still I’ll say yes to each breath, no my friend, until... PatsyP. 2017
