I fight quiet battles within safe spaces
Silent screams pierce my soul
My mind and body are completely out of sync
You see me in full armour
Apparently in total control
I revel in your applause to my performance
The world is a stage- I’m on!
Lights, camera,action!
But suddenly the curtains fall
You cannot see me – im off
A heap of lumbered limbs
Almost crawling away from the stage
Trying to survive in this cruel world
A world in denial
Where performers are welcome
But perishers are relegated to the periphery
