A little time

Build me up like the blocks of a child’s pass time before me
Make sure the blocks can’t be removed 
My life cannot be that Jenga like structure I have so often experienced in my past
Tell me about the times you have had falls so big that the cuts left deep rooted scars that reappeared in dark nights and low moods
For I am just 35 but for the persecutions I’ve lived in I feel so much older
But not so much wiser as you’d all like me to be


I have always put my arms out for others 
Drowning myself just to save a soul
In pain and alone but others use me as stepping stones to love or achievements 

Am I where I thought I’d be?
Probably in most cases 
In most elements of my life I have exceeded 
Marriage a home my family still here 
Personal development seems to have stopped in areas
