appreciate

this is just a season.
this isn't forever. 
this is temporary. 

and i think of him 
paralyzed
glued to his wheelchair 
with the knob 
doing all the work 
of his hands

and i can shut my mouth 
and not breathe another complaint

for this darkness is temporary.
my sight will not be gone forever. 
and this season is a rich, refining, time 
and i will get back up again. 

he will not say the same
