Peripheral Vision

Eyes that see
Ears that hear
Lips that are silenced
Hands that hang loosely on my side

Years of struggle
Battles with my reflection
Ceaseless arguments
Rebellious antics
One sided vision
Of my life

Eyes that perceive
Ears that listen
Lips that speak
Hands that reach out to the sky

Day to day struggle
Accepting who I am
Finally achieving
What I've longed for
Peripheral vision
Of my life
