Thanks, she has been through a lot. She formed in her mother's womb. She grew into a young girl. She blossomed into a young woman & flew away at 15 to school. She soared despite losing her dad to lung cancer in 88 at the age of 57 & her best friend in 90 from leukemia age 16. She birthed 2 kids, now 21 & 23. She crashed after being married to an abusive husband & father. She bled hard inside for years. She scarred when she tried to heal from 2 more men abusing her in their 14 month of being in a relationship (ironically) & when she lost her only true love to cancer at the age 40 on Thanksgiving Day Oct 12th 2008. She healed from being homeless for 6 months due to her government to which she received an apology, a little late but she forgives all. She remembers but never forgets. She is, me.

Minimalist writing can communicate much in few words. Here, a woman's life is encompassed in 26 words. Each two word verse leaves much for our imaginations to dwell upon. Very nicely handled.

Like a rebirth from healing and forgivness. Excellent job!

Very nice flow of thoughts. You led the reader to the proper ending my friend. We learn many things and we become "Me". Thank you dear friend for sharing the amazing poetry.
