Sitting here I stare
Longing to move
The pain I cannot bare
The chair now has a groove
Now all I do is think
As time passes in a blink
I’m cursed
Therapy made it worse
From left to the right
Withdrawn from the fight
Full body Neuropathy
I don’t want your fake empathy
I didn’t want excuses
I didn’t want this life
Crippled by pain
Feeling useless
Being shamed
And nothing, yet strife
I don’t hear you talking
Keep on gawking
Your ignorance is not bliss
Your education is a miss
Discrimination is what you did
The facts you did hid
You hindered me
That I do see
Karma you will face
As you fall from grace
No longer that Ace
I closed your case.
