Who am I?

[How cute was I as a bridesmaid, aged 3?]

A lover, not a fighter
An artist - don't know -
Creative, that's a definite,
But my past has held me back.
A watcher of beauty;
A photographer of life;
A writer, good or bad,
It pours out and yet holds back
Without choice or will
So I keep a notebook near
Inspired, but things conspire
To keep it all in, unformed.
"Not good enough," I was told
And that often echoes in the quiet
But ideas should be limitless
And I shall try not to listen

Yet I know that you will continue to move on to a brighter, happier, more positive future.
We can learn from the past, realise our validity and stand proud and tall, heads held high.
Kind wishes, Gary x
