What Do I Have?

Annabel 
What do I have?
I asked myself......

Oh, I see,
A name to utter,
A birthday to remember,
A profession to flatter,
Some pains to suffer,
Some memories to torture,
Some rewards to pleasure,
Some paths to stagger,
Some talents to flower,
Some strength to order.

And,
Some youth to squander,
Some truth to decipher. 
Perhaps,
Some people to encounter.
Some assets to entitle. 

Strip them all away, if Fate wishes,
I’d care little. 

Because now, 
I have a Heart knows Love,
I have a Life to Live.
More? 
A reason to be Brave,
A breath that’s Alive.....
What I have
