The Day I Knew

Started October 5th 2021 completed October 26th 2021

IMAGINE YOUR VOICE GETTING QUIETER BY THE DAY WHAT WOULD YOU WANT THE LAST THING PEOPLE TO HEAR YOU SAY? WHO WOULD YOU SAY IT TO? I HAD NO WARNING.

I WAS A CHILD WHEN I KNEW I WAS DIFFERENT. IT FELT LIKE I WAS SINKING

I HAD NO OPTION BUT TO LEARN TO BREATHE UNDERWATER. I BECAME GREAT HOLDING MY BREATH. ONE DAY YOU ARE A SPEAKER THE NEXT AN UNCONTROLLABLE SILENT BODY.

THE TRUTH IS THAT THERE IS A REASON FOR EVERYTHING EVEN MY SILENCE. THERE IS A REASON I HAD TO EXIST LIKE THIS. ONE DAY MY BODY WILL BE FREE. FOR NOW I DEPEND ON JUST MY MIND. I AM JUST AS IMPORTANT AS A SPEAKING PERSON. MY THOUGHTS STRETCH FOR MILES.

THE DAY I KNEW A PART OF ME DIED BUT ALSO THE DAY I LEARNED HOW TO LIVE WITHIN MY MIND.
