My voice doesn't need a microphone;
The chords sing my heart's songs loudly for all to hear.
My eyes may need glasses one day;
Yet even the blurriest filter can't hide the world from me.
My hands will fight through all obstacles;
Arthritis won't stop me from documenting my thoughts and ideas.
My ears fail to catch everything and now anything;
My hands can help form the words my ears and mouth have forgotten.
My body is not a limit I can't overcome.
My body is not a vessel that breaks and then brings me down too.
My body is not perfect; but neither am I.
My body doesn't define me;
What I do with it does.
