Before I was Me

Author’s Mini Magnolia — flowers that take forever, then disappears within days

Been thinking about a tattoo I’d get written across my body for when my mind finally gives way. My mind going is about the only thing I’m truly frightened of…

Before I was me…
I used to be fit, and even quite smart -
We’d chat about love, history, sports, and arts:
And I could run, run like the wind,
And had a pretty good voice, just loved to sing.
