There was a time that I thought
I could not move…couldn’t walk..
Couldn’t sing.
I opened my eyes one day,
And breathed…
My eyes were open,
My tounge could move,
I opened my mouth
And screamed…
My eyes saw the truth
For the first time.
My feet already knew the way,
They were just waiting
For the day…
To become unfrozen.
There was a time,
When I thought I couldnt talk,
Could not breathe,
couldn’t walk….
I did something
I thought I would NEVER DO,
I lied to myself to see myself
Through.
Being blind, I just couldn’t see,
That I was not blind at all.
All it took,
Was the simple truth,
To open my eyes and…..
BREATHE.

Breathe. Going from a time of being chained, of disbelief and struggling on, and then … freedom, relief. This is what I take from your poem. Wonderful. 🙂
