I am.

I am.

A Poem by Rebecca Hope Rouston
"

Thank you writerscafe. You've always been there like a journal. Even in my absence, I always could turn back to read how far I've come.

"
I am now in college
Expanding my mind 
It's still hard to find
Where did I go for so long?

I am now twenty-four years
Stuck in the real world
Both fists in tight curls
Quite literally inspiring myself

I now have a daughter
She is really like me
Just wait and see
In a lot of ways I hope so

I am now a loyal wife
Raising my youths chin
Thanking all my sin
I would be nothing without

I am now happy
I am stressed
I am loved
I am depressed

I am now in my own debt
Made exactly correct
Always aimed to perfect
When I wrote myself one hell of a story

I feel the same way about WC! Although I've only been here a few months, this site has given me memories, friends, self-confidence (which I surely lacked) and of course the courage to be what I am now...
We go through many phases of life but in the end all that matters is what we've learned from all that..
A nicely wriiten piece which I can relate to...

perfect is so hard to achieve...we can only do the best we can...i really like the line "I am now in my own debt"
we are what are flaws are, but they do make one hell of a story, as you say.
raw and honest here.

Yes, how you wrote your wild, wondrous story, and you still are. I remember your voice way back then, years ago just starting out, the frustrations the fears. And now new chapters of you are emerging. How amazing where you have come, what you have made of yourself. So excited to see the next pages of your extravagant life. :)

A written way "to Be" - few have paths they hope to follow...
