| Needing Disabled People As Friends I need you like i need The comfort of a warm bath For my aching bones The homliness of tea and scones On a rainy day, The sting of a dip in the sea On a hot one. Because You know how life knocks me about You know what it takes to keep bobbing up You know how tired its possible to get You know because You live there too. I need you because, In a world of denial, You give me back to myself, With you i can speak the unspeakable, Laugh at the unfunny Be deadly serious. Together we are not scared of truths That terrify, Together we can plan the impossible Spin fantasies today And make them happen tomorrow. I leave you with my bones polished and new, I take a blessing for my body, I go breathing clean air, Thinking clear thoughts, Owning my strength. I need you. by Sue. |
