Me, Myself & I

At times I have bathed
in layers of happiness
and bliss
other times I have felt
so lonesome
that I could cry
during sessions
of unhappiness.

No one is responsible
for the choices
that I make
nor the consequences
I must take.

No one that is
except me,
myself
and I.

Well said! I especially loved the first few lines and the impact of the last few lines!

Yo James,

That's the way it is for most people, some much more that others.

It's the way the world works.

life is about choices James and takes courage to accept about the wrong choices one makes.

Been there, done that. Know that trio well. You said it right. Peace.
