I’m so happy to know that I’m just ‘dyslexic’
Never knew I was, until 2 years ago in my 44th year on this rock. so i wrote a poem… titled;
'I’m Just Me'
So many told me... and they scolded me too.
They BROKE me and stuck me together with glue!
I was‘shy’‘dumb’and‘lazy’…oh! And don’t forget‘crazy’.
They were right. I was wrong. SO,I HID!!!
I struggled and tried. To fit in... I just lied.
Deep down, I asked why? To survive? I was five. I was alone in the dark, ain’t no walk in the park. Yet safety and comfort grew. I always got up and never gave up, I had learned just what to do.
I was ‘crippled’ but grew, I was beaten and bruised.
Held captive yet I held the key.
As some light past on through, my spirit just grew,
It was revealed that… I’m just me.
One that sings, one that dances, one that loves and takes chances. I’m but one and that’s enough indeed.
Full of life, despite strife, after all, that‘s what makes me ...amazingly ME.
I was made in this way. Gifted some say, intelligent, kind and caring. Not broken or wrong, full of life, full of song. I’m capable, ready and daring.
I’ve turned the key and I’m finally free, to be all that I am able. I’m no longer alone, I know who I am and I love what I bring to the table.
Forgive them I say, for they know not their ways.The blinded are unable to see. I’m just happy I know the difference now.... cause dyslexia's outside of ME!
