Wanting an outcome i cannot achieve Dreaming of not always feeling this way Knowing that I cannot reverse time Accepting that this pain is here to stay Caused by my own lack of attention Struck by misfortune when I didn't look My body was broken by one accident This is a new chapter in my story book Living with limits I know that I have Breaking the ceiling is just out of reach Moving my body at all is painful Maybe just maybe I can learn to teach A valuable lesson i have to give out One that I know may save a life Persistence is key to living through pain Patience is key to dealing with strife A new drive to find my next sentence Desire pushing me to lift this curse Working on permitting my failures Not letting anything make it all worse Needing to find my new niche on earth Trying to find what i can do for you all Pushing my limits to feel better again Dreading what happens if one day I fall I cannot let myself falter again I know that it will most like occur I feel so dead most days I have trouble letting my emotions stir Feeling so numb from countless tries It hurts to know that it hurts to walk It burns me to know i need help to stand Sometimes I feel like I can't even talk Doubting myself is now second nature Living has become such a chore Loved ones are what keeps me alive Having them will always warm my core
