Every One Lights Up A Different Part Of Me: How About You?

​

As your love shifts from results to the road itself,
you may awaken to a wondrous predicament—
life’s banquet brimming with too many splendid dishes to savor.

You lift your hand to greet the day—
But find it’s simply gone away.
One moment whole, the next, a space,
And shock is frozen on your face.

 

You gasp—"This shouldn’t be my fate!"
Your dreams are gone, a heavy weight.
The life you pictured now erased,
Your future plans are so debased.

 

But many live with limbs they lost,
Their life is happy, no noticed cost.
They laugh, they love, they dance, they try,
And no less light shines from their eyes.

 

It’s not the loss that makes your blight,
But facts you think that you must fight.
You thought your path was set and clear,
But now new truths have just appeared.

 

Undo your expectations, friend,
Or suffer pain that will not end.
Your mind’s old maps don’t match the ground,
So start from now with truths just found.

 

There’s no defeat—that’s simply real.
And new life comes from what’s revealed.
The truth of now, no false compare,
No lies that claim that life’s unfair.

 

You’re still just fine—intact, alive—
There is no way you’ve been deprived.
Your arm is gone, reality.
A fresh new start, vitality!

 

Undo your expectations, friend,
Or suffer pain that will not end.
Your mind’s old maps don’t match the ground,
So start from now — new truths just found.
