the child i didn’t get to be
i yearn the child
i didn’t get to be
i yearn being wild
and jumping over waves in the sea
i yearn being soft
and not being handicapped
my confidence was swarfed
til my patience snapped
i never got to be a child
at seven, i needed to be a grown up
now, the adult can’t be exiled
but with my lost childhood i can try and catch up
see me win back my never-ending smile
despite fighting diagnoses and dark days
stuffed animals, photos and memories i compile
and i begin to see my life through a childlike gaze
i didn’t get to be
i yearn being wild
and jumping over waves in the sea
i yearn being soft
and not being handicapped
my confidence was swarfed
til my patience snapped
i never got to be a child
at seven, i needed to be a grown up
now, the adult can’t be exiled
but with my lost childhood i can try and catch up
see me win back my never-ending smile
despite fighting diagnoses and dark days
stuffed animals, photos and memories i compile
and i begin to see my life through a childlike gaze

each day hurts
unfortunately,
i feel
just as
i look,
the sun
comes up,
hours pass
and then
the moon
waves,
another
morning
and things
haven't
changed,
my body
in pain,
i feel
it there
to greet
me each
new day.
i feel

Beautiful Child
her words strike,
an angry snake
filled with venom
burn my heart
worst fire I have ever known
there were not enough tears to
squelch her anger
her words, hisses of black smoke
filled my lungs
choking my thoughts
there was nothing
to do but let her watch
me burn,
hope for
forgiveness
(thinking and wondering
can drive you crazy,
second guessing yourself ..
even worse
a knife in your chest cuts
just a little deeper,
watching yourself bleed,
feeling nothing ...
an angry snake
filled with venom
burn my heart
worst fire I have ever known
there were not enough tears to
squelch her anger
her words, hisses of black smoke
filled my lungs
choking my thoughts
there was nothing
to do but let her watch
me burn,
hope for
forgiveness
(thinking and wondering
can drive you crazy,
second guessing yourself ..
even worse
a knife in your chest cuts
just a little deeper,
watching yourself bleed,
feeling nothing ...

Their Voice Like A Blackhole
Their voice is like a blackhole I'm getting sucked into their game, a game I didn't even chose to play.
I'm in this video game constantly running, enemies keep respawning.
I could never escape them.
The John Wacy clown follows me around, he's looking not to kill...
But to steal my soul forever.
They were soul thiefs like the black Klobber in Donkey Kong Country 2.
The nightmare always plays.
The tune is always playing...
They're always watching...
And I'm their target.
I'm their empty...
I'm in this video game constantly running, enemies keep respawning.
I could never escape them.
The John Wacy clown follows me around, he's looking not to kill...
But to steal my soul forever.
They were soul thiefs like the black Klobber in Donkey Kong Country 2.
The nightmare always plays.
The tune is always playing...
They're always watching...
And I'm their target.
I'm their empty...

Pain and Suffering
I feel your pain
No you don't
You feel your pain
Just for a moment I'd like to be inside the body and mind of someone else who is suffering.
To feel their pain.
Pain that words cannot describe or convey.
To see if their pain is remotely like mine.
To offer them my compassion and kindness.
To hold their hand and embrace them.
To tell them ......
I feel your pain
Yes you do
You feel my pain.
No you don't
You feel your pain
Just for a moment I'd like to be inside the body and mind of someone else who is suffering.
To feel their pain.
Pain that words cannot describe or convey.
To see if their pain is remotely like mine.
To offer them my compassion and kindness.
To hold their hand and embrace them.
To tell them ......
I feel your pain
Yes you do
You feel my pain.
