Not one word
can describe
the essence
of who I am
and what I stand for.
It changes.
At the end,
of my time—
a dictionary,
full of small words
big words
and phrases,
even some jokes
will explain nothing.
The book
of an ordinary life.

A brilliant response to the prompt
That’s very sweet, Derrick.
‘Me’, ‘Myself’, ‘I’ . . . and that changes every second of my life 🙂 !
That’s a good thing, Eha. 🙂
Whoever coined the phrase “I can read you like a book” was very misguided!
Going toward 40 years of sharing a life together, I can honestly say there a times when I think I don’t know him at all (and vice versa) and other times he is an open book. Gosh, I hope this is normal.
It is from my point of view, although my wife says she never knows what I am thinking!
Yep, that’s us too.
Well said
Thank you~!
