for mine

If this is it I
Not being a quitter
Will live till I die
Ending by beginning

To mind how it goes
By making it better
Not being bitter
Means I end by winning
Letter by letter
To find what no one knows

To have a few friends
Whatever it may mean
Means between the ends
It means something between

Riddliscious as ever, Steven. Two lines in here could be an entire mantra: "To mind how it goes/By making it better." Thank you for that. Your ending line is haunting to me: "It means something between." I like that. ~~ Diana
