a story from my life or my life's story?

NinjaGirl


Notice of absence from NinjaGirl
Will be absent until Jan 6th. Happy holidays to all!

What is my story

Story-they say it's mine

Mine-but body feels taken

Taken-and it's my innocence

Innocence-and it's a child

Child-and she didn't understand

Understand-I do now

Now-I wish I would have fought

Fought-and it's my life

Life-and I'm still learning to claim it

It-what is it?

What is my story?

    Riddle? Obviously a traumatic event you have yet to recover from .

    • NinjaGirl

      I'd say I'm in the process of recovering let us not discount that! Haha, I'd say often poetry involves riddles especially considering connotation...

      • Doggerel Dave

        Can't fault that. It would seem locally it obfuscates rather than clarifies.

        • NinjaGirl

          Thanks I much appreciate the feedback

          One is handed a hand full of clay some a little, some a lot, what they do with it is up to them. Your story, your choice. Well done NinjaGirl. Don't let anyone steal your clay.
