It's a Thought

I do wonder what lies ahead of me

And seldom do I like what I see

It’s best not to dwell on it for too long

As simple tasks I could do I know are gone

A break in the circuit inside my brain

Is perhaps the best way to explain

With the missing links gone for good

We are so often misunderstood

Spend some time battling to get out of bed

No new ideas inside my head

Rock back and forth and hope for the best

It’s a new day of challenges to put to the test

I want to walk faster and get out of your way

But the message to my legs has gone astray

I hear you tutting I’m certainly not deaf

You’re really not helping just giving me stress

This could be you in years to come

But please take note you can still have fun

We’re all the same in our own special way

And wake up thinking will this be a good day?
