THIS IS ME: WALKING AWAY FROM YOU

 man, 

i wish i could just walk away 

today 

and tomorrow 

yeah, because I'm so tired of ...

all of this sorrow 

so girl, may I borrow your legs?

yeah, because mine...

 move like pegs 

or worse...

like the dead 

yeah, I can't even get myself out of bed

and the fact that...

I still

have breath 

left 

and a will

to move 

on my own 

but I can't 

and that feels...

so wrong 

and alone

yeah, because I'm still 

expected to be...

loving and strong 

yeah, Christ's clone 

but I am fully human 

and what cerebral palsy is doing 

is ruining my life 

slice by slice
