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,...

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.

Your love is like a river, flowing through my heart. It fills me with joy and happiness and washes away all my pain. Your love is like a mountain, Steadfast and strong. It gives me strength and courage and helps me overcome any obstacle. Your love is like...

Im lost, Where thoughts and feelings dwell, And all the paths are winding, And none of them go well. I wander through the darkness, And I can’t find my way, And I’m afraid to call for help, For fear of what I’ll say. I’m lost in my own...

I feel like a man on the moon. Watching the earth from afar, my body paralyzed, my mind racing with thoughts afar. I can see the beauty of the world. From this vantage point so high. I’m a prisoner in this body of mine, but my mind is...
