TOUGH SENSITIVITY
2 October 2013

I was born in the sunshine
at the beginning of summer
so my passion for life
knows no bounds.
I refuse to be contained
by the pessimism
or the poison
or the lies
or the sick soul
of anyone.  
I am nobody’s
prisoner,
target,
toy
or trash.

No indeed, you are not meant to be anyone's anything. Your feathers are just too bright

For some reason I thought you were born in November, Diana.

Yes, I was born in November, Ida, but that is summer in the southern hemisphere.  I live in South Africa.
