Would you ever, if you never saw the stars.
Learn to dream in the dark away from the light.
Would you ever, if you never had a cause.
Fight for those that cannot fight.
Would you ever, if you never knew love.
Share a moment and create a memory.
Would you ever, if you never knew the truth.
Find peace at night and learn just to be.
Could I ever, if I never knew my past.
Find something worth holding and make it last.
Could I ever, if I never cared for you.
Find forgiveness for you too.
Could I ever, if I never knew the man I was.
Be the man I was meant to be.
Could I ever, if I never wrote again.
Live my life with no beginning or end.

Beautiful! I hope that I would, and yes I think you could. I think light can burn from within. I wrote about this in my latest poem ‘A full circle’.

Pretty good thanks Jason. Got myself an agent and hoping to have my memoir published. Early days but feeling hopeful.
And you? Hope you’re doing well. Good to see you still blogging. Not too many of us have lasted this long.

This is the best you have ever written Jason.
You have become a loving father and husband, you have a loving extended family. What you never had has given you all you do have now. All that made you suffer has made you good and strong. 💜
