Her Name Is Disability

There is a girl I know,
Her name is Disability,
She travels on unseen wheels,
With her imagined friend Instability,
The demons in her head scream,
Miserably reminding her of everything,
She is not, and never will be.
She is blind, she is deaf, and often she is depression and lost in death,
She can see addiction in everything,
And she has alcohol and drug dependency.
She is looking through your eyes, sadly,
And with your lips, she whispers;
'Don't ignore me, don't pity',
'Reflected in your eyes, I can see me inside you so easily'
You might be aware of her, or you might look away dismissively,
All she needs is equality.
Her name is Disability.

No Pity!

Why do people have a lot of pity towards girls feelings. I know it's wrong to treat any girl without respect but it's also wrong to do so to lads too.

Where Am I?

Where is that cheerful guy I used to know. I look in the mirror and it's like I don't even recognize myself. I look so down and tired, I don't see that guy that was so happy so long ago.

Pain

-I lay here in bed looking at my wrist, I see vains. It's not bad, not worse than me being in pain. - I wish I could get better by the days, But instead I have to go to the doctor to get x-rays.
