What does it mean to lose?
Vision, health, vitality
What does it mean to lose?
Your joy, desire, plans
What does it mean to lose?
Something or nothing

Thoughts run in circles
Change, mourn, move
Thoughts run randomly
Stay, cry, hibernate
Thoughts run because
Something or nothing

What does it mean to be strong
Stand, believe, go forward
What does it mean to be strong
Pray, gather, support
What does it mean to be strong
Something or nothing

Something can be nothing
Choice, choose, chosen
Something can be nothing
If you choose to lay down
Something is not nothing
Choose life

Written after losing vision in my second eye and realizing that the days of playing soccer and other primal joys were gone. 3 years later, life is as grand and as beautiful as ever just with different axis points for happiness and freedom.
