To Leave Our Life…!As we sail through the trials of life, We hit highs, and then some low… But always we must strive onward, For forwards the only way to go. But as people pass in and out of our lives, Some stay, and some walk on, And others who don't like our honesty, Walk away – its over and done. Now really I do not care, What anyone says to me! Like me or lump me, be as it may, For we live in the land of the free. If people don't like my honesty, And maybe don't like what I say, And decide to leave my life through it, Then be that as it may. For I wont lose any sleep over it, Life's far too short for that you see, More I will strive forward, Because that's the way it should be! I have had ‘friends' leave my life, And yes, I'm being brave here! For I am epileptic! And some ‘friends' didn't care… Didn't care about hurting my feelings, When they left my life for whatever reason, What was the problem, was there one? Its like abandoning a ship, like treason! So tell me now, what do you think? Was it right to walk away? Friends of many years mind you! Yet they were ashamed of me and couldn't stay! Epilepsy isn't contagious you know, Its merely a glitch in the brain, Over activity of electricity, There is no need for shame! But shame I felt for many a year, Told no-one who didn't need to know! Why should I tell them and hang around, To see if they would stay or go! Then I came to a conclusion or two, That the problem was theirs, not mine! At the end of the day, its like a faint, When its over, then once more we're fine! It isn't catching, it isn't a disease! It isn't what anyone perceives it to be, Alls it is - is a glitch or two… And they called it; ‘epilepsy!' So ok, once I would be chatting, And I would fall into a trance, It doesn't make me taboo you know, And I am worth a second glance.! Mine was caused by a tumor, Upon me poor old brain, And I have to be quite honest, I've never been the same! It sort of gave me a complex, And made me bashful and shy! And if you believe that, you believe anything, She says, as she winks her eye! You have to have a sense of humor, Especially around this kid here, For after all, when said and done, I don't really care! So should I walk around in shame? Should I hide behind a closed door? Should I forever hide the fact…? Should I hide it forevermore? And though I'm one of the lucky ones, And I am truly controlled, Still I decided to come out of the closet, And decided it had to be told. So I Just Did! Should I be ashamed of myself? Nope, why should I…! I am Epileptic! Yessireee Poetry Ad-Free Upgrades Vote for this poem
