As the curtains fall
I stand transfixed
On the stage of life
This is where
I do my thing
This is where
I let my heart sing
This is where
Sometimes I thrive
On this stage of life
But as the curtains fall
for the final time
I call out
I kinda shout
I’m not done!
I’ve only just begun!

Thank you for reading, liking, and commenting to my posts.  It is very appreciated.

I am currently raising money to pay for ongoing psychotherapy. I am a survivor of complex trauma, I have dissociative identity disorder, and complex PTSD.  Therapy can be very expensive.

If you feel like donating to my fund you can donate using pay pal. My pay pal email for donating is:

Don’t feel you have to, there is no pressure, but I’m grateful for any donations that are received.

Again thanks for visiting!
