Stranger

How many times
you have taken me where
I cannot breathe
this life, this air
flashed before me
was all that I knew
seeing a future ,
imitating who
I have been
and who I am now
still,I come
to this place to bow
Take this life,
it is not my own
I am here
with joy on loan.
a stranger that knows
who I will be
when I grow up
Then we shall see.

:heart: barrowed time within your rhyme,
granted passage to where you rest, or climb.

"...I am here

I have had one of my 97yr old Residents tell me that...Followed by..."...I've had enough borrowed joy, I'm ready to go Home.."
