Anti-bacterial

For a brain injury survivor,
The epidemic is far from quiet,
It is –
Pervasive,
Comprehensive,
Undeniable,

Life gets off skew,
GOT TO GET A BALANCE!
Organic dysfunction,
24-7… dealing!
Rehabilitation is a full time job.

Survivors want to scream from the hilltops!
Sing it to the masses,
Break the curse of silence! 
No one wants to be denied,
We certainly don’t want to hide!

You need to know on the inside,
What it’s like to walk in my shoes,
I’m going to telepathically communicate it,
I need to,
I said it is my need 
To communicate this with you.

I’ll take you on a fun trip,
Yes, and of brain injury
You’ll be more hip,
I have the will,
I am committed,
Determined,
I light on fire 
on the mission -
Gray Matters! 

The doors have been closed,
The mind and heart have yet to awaken,
We’re inserting the key 
to open the gates,
Enter and you can feel,
It’s ok to care,
Because empathy heals.!
I said IT’S OK TO CARE 
Melt those stones in there,
Love rebounds
When it’s found.
Gray Matters!

I’m calling to all around the nation,
Let us sing in chorus,
Break the silence,
Let’s raise a ruckus,
Hip, hip hoorah,
Hip, hip hooray,
Together,
We can draw a close
To the silent dismay.

This is a call to awareness -
I’m making a shout.
So the bacterial stain
We can clean out.

Pick up my book,
Listen to my rhyme,
I’ll have you captivated in no time!
Pass on the word of what you hear,
We are breaking the silence
Thanks to your receptive ear.
We’re paving the way for knowledge,
We are the pioneers…

Gray Matters!
