To My Life

I plead

By Motivated tonesPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

I have traveled through madness to find myself.

Then insanity arrived with a group of anarchists

when multiple sclerosis arrived

I again put out fires

I negotiated with my self from jumping.

I crawled through barbed wire and land mine filled fields

to try and save my body.

Now all I pray for is to not have to fight any more.

Depression sneaks its full blown ways on my unexpected happiness

making me shy away from the love that is saving me.

Please let the fight be done.

let me live in peace.

let me be free

I the prisoner, a man trapped inside his own body.

let me see serenity for all the rest of my life

let me live healthy and free and with my wife in peace please

set me free.
