In Lilac Dreams

The storm within awakens

Consciousness is broken

The brain is weak

Energy waves released

Control is lost

Physical, mental, emotional

Undue stress

Flashing lights 

Not sleeping well

A flickering flame

Heat and Smoke

Triggers are all around

They are good

They are bad

Afraid to reach out

Afraid to live

Confronted by fear

It teams with ignorance

Everyday

Everywhere

We are never alone

In lilac dreams

Patty Guilmette

I like to write short 5-7-5 syllable poems. One of this type of poem is called a japanese senryu.  This poem is called  'virtue' I hope you like it.

                                virture

                  virture is not worn

         on silken sleeves or loose lips

                    be a humble man

It fought the reality of having to wake up to...wake up to...wake up

to!... the pre-recorded tape that never ran out of film.

Reminding Itself of it's own sorrow and demise. 

Pupum, pupum, pupum- was the sound it made;

along with a constant flutter at It's core.

The images, the colors, the shapes, the dreams were - incomlete

because they weren't realized by all five scences.

It was unable to function.

It was cold.

It was numb.

Alone

Afraid to reach out

Reach out and to live

To live in a world

A world filled with hopes

Add in dreams, heartaches and turmoil

But from these do we learn

Learn not to be

Afraid

I think Epilepsy is just another way for us to challenge ourselves even more and it gives us the chance to find out who we really are and what we were made for :)

Here is a great quote "Do what makes you you happy, be with who makes you smile, laugh as much as you breath, love as long as you live.."
