Poetic lines
Lost

Encased in the choices I’ve made
Unable to move
Flinch a single muscle
Painful, frustrating, yet comforting

Mournful, tearful, cheeks wet

The thick white plaster covering my body is heavy.
Weighing down my heart, my mind, my spirit.
My lungs work hard to breathe

More than a blunder or oversight – a blatant uncaring error.
Born of selfishness


Yet a necessary gift. Opportunity.

Confused and torn by such an oxymoronic twist of events.
Aren’t my battle scars pretty?
Ugly
Torn and bleeding.
