LEANNE MODEN
Ageing I am more experienced now: the years have been unkind. It is impossible for me to say I am wiser, stronger, more resilient, when I know in my heart I am a shadow of what came before. Let it never be said that I was defiant in the face of convention. When asked to bite my tongue, lower my head, I did what was expected of me. After all this time, I cannot say I am finally content. I am finally content. After all this time, I cannot say I did what was expected of me. When asked to bite my tongue, lower my head, I was defiant in the face of convention. Let it never be said that I am a shadow of what came before when I know in my heart I am wiser, stronger, more resilient. It is impossible for me to say the years have been unkind: I am more experienced now.
