Epilepsy’s Enlightenment

Frustration reactors

Demonstrating demolishing factors

Within this brain of mine

Feels like God has left me behind sometimes

On the wheel of Life

In a world of strife

Yet all of this has caused me

To become the man that I am

To this very day

In a way

Its stronger in soul and spirit

Yet weaker in mind with memory and recollection

Although a re-connection in synapses

Are coming from inside somehow as I glide

Through this trial of life right now

Becoming a stronger person

There was no rehearsing

Just all of a sudden it came to me

Struck me in the face

And now I must always replace

The negatives for the positives

I must give and not take

Be real and not fake

Face reality from the reel of Life's spiel

To appeal to all

But most of all....Me

For I matter the most right now

So take this post and let it boast

Your life to another degree

Let yourself see who you are being

Feel the true reality of what

You truly want to be feeling

God dealt you these cards that He

Knew could be dealing with

So never give in

Rise thy chin

Open your eyes

Breathing a deep breath

For Death is still a long ways to come

Now take this experience

And relay it to All, not only one
