  A dagger thrust at my own heart

  I hold my head up even higher

  Flying through air and floating on seas

  I sell myself to the death buyer

Smile.

I read this just yesterday, and thought that it read as a riddle, and I confess, I couldn't have ventured a guess just yesterday.

But today?

I relate to every word completely.

"I hold my head up even higher"

I love your spirit m'friend, and thank you for this.

A dagger? Nay sounds more like cupids arrow! A lot of power packed in this little poem. You're scaring me - it was only a couple of months ago that you said 'I can't write poetry'!
