Still

Pacing back and forth

Looking for the answers

Eventually I'll remember my way north

And maybe I wont succumb to this cancer

Still I sit here

Even with only half the puzzle, I try to complete it

Confused yet focused, at the pieces I leer

One day you'll be whole, I believe it

My heart knows the answers

Every fiber knows the truth

However, I remain here still

Only I keep moving, pushing, striving

My head held high, even when I'm drowning

Eternally I still fight

Deeming everyday one for growth

As I spread my wings and take a leap

Determination fuels my flight

Dedication to myself is my new right

You won't catch me, not again

I would have quietly asked you to remember the “Rose of Sharon” will always linger. Gently, Pat
