The Before

Updated: Nov 1

I wish you knew me

In the before

When my hips swayed

Through the door

Of effortless arm swing

Of effortless everything


When I truly believed

That this type of disease

Would never happen

To someone like me


When people stopped to stare

Or compliment my hair

And I was eager to be

The center of everything


Now I am at the center again

Of a whirlwind of feelings

Live in the moment

Don’t think about tomorrow


If steps were as easy as words

I would already be at the finish line
