A searing storm beneath the skin, A constant, burning, buzzing din. Nerves ablaze, a frantic plea, For even fleeting vacancy. Each breath a spark, a touch a flare, The gentlest breeze feels harsh and bare. The world a blur, a muted hush, As fiery tendrils writhe and crush....

Overcoming Fear Of Unknow
A heavy weight, a heart that’s sore, Disappointment stings once more. Dreams unmet, a path unclear, But hope remains, I persevere. Tears may fall, like cleansing rain, Washing clean the hurt, the pain. Though shadows linger, skies will mend, Brighter days are just around the bend. I’ll take...

Under The Knife
In sterile halls, where shadows lie, A blade awaits, beneath a cold, bright eye. My heart implodes, a frantic drum, As fear itself takes hold and numbs. Will I wake up, whole once more? Or drift away, and wake no more? These are the thoughts that plague my...

A Burden
The weight I carry, unseen by eye, A constant pressure, a silent sigh. A fear of draining, a well run dry, Makes me question if I bring them joy. Their gentle patience, a whispered grace, But doubt lingers, etched on my face. Is my presence unwanted, a misplaced...

They Don’t Understand
Trapped in a cage, though the bars unseen, A world of motion, a life serene. They see the stillness, a peaceful guise, But the storm within my own two eyes. A symphony of aches, a constant drone, A fire that burns where flesh and bone Should move with...

Four Walls
In four walls, a world transformed, Muscles stilled, a life reformed. Once fluid grace, now bound by chair, Adapting wings, to find new air. The mind, a compass, strong and true, Charts a course in shades of blue. Frustration’s tide, it ebbs and flows, But will to thrive,...

Over Coming Odds
A world confined, a body stilled,A diagnosis, a future chilled.Quadriplegic, the verdict fell,Hope’s fragile flame, they almost quell. But in that heart, a fire burned,A spirit fierce, for life unturned.The odds they stacked, a mountain high,Yet in their gaze, a steely eye. Through therapy’s relentless grind,They pushed their...

The Dead Tree
The sentinel stood, a skeletal frame, A silhouette stark, whispered death’s cold name. Branches like bones, clawed at the sky, No leaves to unfurl, just a mournful sigh. Seasons had turned, a silent ballet, Winter’s white shroud, spring’s verdant display. But the dead tree remained, a haunting sight,...
