My Thoughts in Poetry Form

“The Power of friendship”

As I sat in my chair,
crying my eye balls out as if they were
going to fall out into a pool of water
growing bigger and bigger with each
moment that goes by.

Tears of confusion and disappointment
Were cluttering my mind as if somebody
Knocked me out,
for I didn’t know what on earth was wrong
with the old computer.
Thinking about what to do,
Wanting to throw the moldy decrepit pieces
Of the computer out of my window
To see if it would fly away like a wild,
Unruly pigeon
That is possessed by the devil,
And watch it fly into the sunset never to
Return again,
Before I lose my sanity.

Ideas forming in my mind
Like wild flowers growing in a garden
As I walk toward the computer.
Looking at it slowly like I was ready
To fight another human being
Running my fingers across the keyboard,
Like a blind child trying to find her way
through life in this
World.
Suddenly, it comes on with a touch of a
Button,
For it spoke with a gruff voice,
Scaring me half to death
As if it is ready to jump out at of me,
Like a tiger hunting his prey.
Reaching out for the mouse,
Moving about all over the blue screen.
But, it then decided to kick the bucket on me
And
Stopped working altogether.
“A battle of Wits is it?”
Gosh darn your Moldy Hide!
“Aye, I’ll show you.”

Yelling as I pulled every grain of hair out of
My head.
Yelling like a banshee who has gone mad.
Hearing a little, gentle voice trying to
Calm me down as I was wiping my tears
away from my red,
Flushed face quickly.
Smiling sweetly at him,
Trying to hide my emotions
“Don’t play with me, missy,”
Acting all innocent and cute,
“Come on missy, I saw your lip.”
“What is that lying on floor, playing
Dead?”
He said looking at me.
Finally, braking down and telling him
Everything that had happened to me.
Taking my hand and placing it in his.
Whispering softly,
“Cheer up, everything will be alright.
Hush now, I am here.”

This poem talks about the challenges that everyone with and without disabilities has to face in life. No matter who you are, everybody has challenges. Life would be boring without challenges. Life is a game with risks and many hardships. Don’t be afraid to face these challenges of life. Yet, later on in life, there will be great opportunities waiting for you, if you are determined to stand up to your challenges and your equal rights as an individual.
