Premium Member Disability poem Pl-ease
Don’t see only our disabilit-ease, Don’t deny us basic facilit-ease, Don’t ignore our many abilit-ease, Don’t compound our varied difficult-ease, Deal head-on with the harsh realit-ease. You never know what life has in store, You may fall one day and rise no more, You may join our ranks, afraid, unsure, You may write words to plead; implore. We are not an alien race, We...

Useless
I still wake to crisp morning air, but hope dissolves right then and there. As I open my eyes, I realize and sigh— another day begins, and I wonder why. Time drags slowly—no spark, no fun, another long cold day, no warmth, no sun. No ambition, no energy, nothing gets done— just me and this silence I cannot outrun. I used to be...

Chronic Pain
Please tell the world — pain is real, It doesn’t vanish, it doesn’t heal. Some may smile and say “you’ll mend,” But this is a war that will never end. Chronic pain doesn’t come-and-go, It’s in your joints, it’s all you know. It lingers in silence, behind each breath, A quiet shadow that mimics death. Debilitating, crushing, it’s stolen my days, In a thousand...

When We Say Goodbye
When we say goodbye, Time will not stand still. Life moves on as it always has, Forsaking my own will. Don’t try to feel sad— I’ll know it’s all a lie. You didn’t love me while alive; Don’t pretend to care when I die. I was a burden to so many, In my youth and old age. I’d rather go out quietly Than force a false...

The Bathroom
We must clear the signs If visitors come. The instructions on how to Wipe and clean. It is for shame, to not Embarrass him. Signs encouraging growth and how to Self-sustain. What do they think of My old cracking bathroom? If they knew the battles fought here, the messes made! At least the dog can still be washed here. So that’s one...

Where was your manual for me. The mandatory rehabilitation. Ignorance is bliss and you had built up frustration. Aggravation. Where was your patience. Waiting for the other shoe to drop contemplating. we needed a manual for the situation. That’s all i’m saying. On the other hand where was the contribution. lost for words at the amusement. The alternative resolution. Where was your manual for me. The...

Hidden disability
I have a disability no one else can see, People think I'm normal but it's hidden inside of me. Sometime I'm happy other times I'm sad, Anxiety depression doctors said but others think I'm mad. They all just say get a grip there are happy times ahead, It's easy for them to say as they can't see in my head. A...

Premium Member Access is Love
Wheels spin, dreams unfold Stories untold, waiting to be told A world built for some, not for all But change is coming, hear the call Ramps rise, like bridges to the sky Saying "You belong" without a lie Concrete and metal, simple design But they're lifelines, almost divine For those who roll instead of walk These slopes are more than idle talk They're freedom, dignity,...

His radiant countenance exudes vibrant thanksgiving while cheering with jubilant glow… yet, his lips couldn’t verbalize it. So, here am I… his Mom, in striving to talk about it would rather poetically express special child’s mirth of purity upon learning that he is commended for his achievement in his learning endeavor. He was diagnosed with infantile spasm epilepsy “to progress toward retrogression” breaking my heart...
