A Poem by Jeff

I'm young enough to feel my soul

Yet old enough to see behind me


Youthful invincibility is gone

Replaced with a damaged body


Two surgeries in a year

Poison bumped through my veins


In an effort to kill a mutation

Who wants to kill me


Physically drained

Emotionally spent


Focused on survival

Determined to live
