I Am
Symptoms are not who I am
Disease is not my name
Medication is not your fix-it-up
And treatments are not your game
My body is not your fieldwork
This machine that lets me live
My mind is not that experiment
It has yet plenty thoughts to give
Do you know what?
Choices routine and home
Those aren't yours
Please leave me alone
I don't want to take a test
Or endure such pokes and pills
I have enough going on
Without those wrecking side effect chills
Listen to my feeling
Of why I chose not intervention
You'll understand my voice
If you have the right intention
Grace and God. Beauty and life!
This is me! Potential Power Prosperity
Third grade teacher, bird watcher, world traveler
Piano player, pastry baker, flower planter
I am with my family!
