Reaching for the glass
Watching as if in slow motion
As if it is happening to someone else
The trance is broken…
…shattered glass abounds
Trapped in a body
No longer my own
Every fibre fighting against itself
Overwhelming weakness and fatigue…
…shattered perspectives
Hopes and dreams
Forever changed
Day to day living
Is its own constant struggle…
…shattered aspirations
Witty comebacks
Balancing the checkbook
Speaking clearly and succinctly
The ability to multitask…
…shattered abilities
Incomplete and jumbled
I stare feeling frustrated
Simple tasks to most
My mind no longer comprehends…
…shattered mind
