It may make more sense showing you where I came FROM..


Grief
Come on out into the open 

let me get a good look at you 

Demon hiding in the shadows 

or friend and faithful companion? 


I sometimes forget you are there

And, just when I get comfortable, 

out you jump 

just to remind me who is boss
You've a hold on me just as surely as if your fingers were locked 'round my ankle

Why so vigilant?


I am not going anywhere
I've gotten used to you 

And, I expect you will be around for all of my days

You are newly born..
Are you a child?

Are you as frightened of me as I am at times of you?

So come on out...

don't be bashful...

pull up a chair... 


take a seat... 


I don't bite


I know you do...

Come on...
let's be friends

And the inspiration for that was a great poet... 
"Give sorrow words; the grief that does not speak knits up the o'er-wrought heart and bids it break."-- w shakesphere

Don't squat with yer spurs on!

People try to turn back their "odometers." Not me. I want people to know 'why' I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved
