Lost Years; Fruitful Year

by dovemarie

Looking back at years lost
Paying the heavy cost

Many years were destroyed
Circumstances I could not avoid

Born in January cold,
Birthdays filled with pain untold
I ponder and reflect
On how I was a society reject

Suffering from mental ills
Birthdays celebrated in deathlike chills

I'm looking forward to a fruitful year
Washing away each salty tear
Facing my future without fear




My 69th birthday is coming up on January 14.
Pays one point and 2 member cents.
