This is for everyone whoever started off as one person but life(& circumstances) changed them into another

Once I was a tower
A castle seemingly unpenetrable
But then I was besieged
A heap of rubble I became
My tower fell


"Rebuild."  "Rebuild"
They cry
But now defeated
I have no illusions of grandeur
Rebuild?
No, Reborn


Now I am a pile of stones
You can burn me
You can crush me
You can toss me into the sea
But I will always be me
Eternally
Reborn
A pile of stones

Jacqueline...

You are so right.
This can fit so many people
who will only acknowledge it.

Problem is, sometimes some of us
are not aware that we change.

However, I think poets see it
everyday.

(smiles) God Bless You, sweet Jacqueline, I have missed your gorgeous words so much and I just love the faith and determination you have here, as the sediments and pebbles will always live on and you will only be reborn forever! (kiss on cheek) I just love this, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Jacqueline, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
