The Broken Facade

You see the Drool— you see the wheelchair— you see the towel hanging around my neck. However, you won't see me speaking at all. If you hear me speak hear any noise that sounds like words. But are you sure that I am speaking at all? If you are the Lucky Few, you'll see the true Man behind the Broken Façade. Be glad that I allowed you to become a friend.

Thomas, this poem touched my soul, sadly some judge before bothering to get to know someone, and they are the losers. This is a wonderful example for your contest. I hope I can write a poem worthy.

I tried to be honest with everyone including myself. I tried to reply to your mail but I am not sure that it was sent because of the validation code isn't acting correctly for me. Please, tell me that you got it.
