Identity
Down deep I feel something changing inside of me, coming to an end, I’ve been her longer than I’ve been you. Seemed like forever she’s been who I am. I know I wasn’t born her, she wasn’t my identity way back then, but one day she became me and that’s who I’ve been since then.
Twenty one years now she’s walked with me, held my hand down every road you see and wiped every tear you haven’t seen. Put maybe it’s time to put that part of me out, let it go, put it to bed.she had a time and she had a place but maybe it’s time to walk away with God’s grace. I can hold on to long, and hold so tight but when it’s time to let go, well I will do what is right.

In 1998 my divorce ending my marriage to the love of my life was finalized, I kept his name because I loved him. I am thinking now after nearly 171/2 years I am thinking of dropping his last name and just using my maiden.
