Full Circle

by Sharon/Cancer - Not entered

If I gave all my love
to you
All my knowledge
to a child
All my respect
to a lover
And all my strength
to a leader,
would I be left an empty form
filed down
by each and every one of them
to use whenever needed.
Or would I stand tall
in my space
Giving more. . . . 
Maybe more than was needed,
putting a smile on my face
and a warmth in my heart.
I watch from my space,
I see the love, the knowledge, respect and strength
flowing back to me
with more intensity
than was gifted out.
I am complete.

Reason for writing:

    Just one of life's lessons proven to me time and time again.
