My Writings

Existence

"I think therefore I am"
Simple
Profound
Philosophical ideal
 
The philosopher
Proved his existence
By thinking
Through belief came truth
A truth
Readily accept
It is the mind
We think
That sets us apart
 
Reality
Thoughts are invisible
 
Societal Reality
Dear Philosopher
Communication
Expression of thought
Is existence
 

Sarah

I am Sarah Dunion
Portraying a woman invisible to most
With an outer shell that belies intelligent thought
 
Sarah Dunion
One who stands out
Yet blends
Ability to draw stares
While actually being invisible
 

Control

My life always battle for control
Me verses my body
Others verses my body
Eventually even others verses me
Control funny thing
Can master it
Can become dictator
Or can become slave
For me
Mastery like fairy tale, seem
Far
Far
Away
Like wishing upon star
I wish I may. . .
Choose my own clothes
Eat what I want
Work regularly
Be productive every day
Plan
Simple things
But so often
Just beyond my reach
 
 

Reaching

I cannot stop reaching
Only thing I know
I have tried
Resigned myself to mediocrity
Hated it
Not one moment memorable
Not any adventure
Spirit
Or soul
Not living
 

Living in Miracle Times

There are days everything seems impossible
And days when my limitations melt away
We set limits
On ourselves
On others
Limits do not lead
They follow what already exists
And stop where others before us did
The road continues!
If we forge ahead
The ends of our roads equal the end of our dreams
What is your impossible dream?
 

Look at Me

Look at me
Who am I?
Do you see my growth?
Do you see my strength?
Can you discover the depth of my beauty?
The soul is nothing overt
It only can light us if it can be discovered
Sometimes we find it by accident
Or insight
But more often we become bright once we can be seen
Not physically
But expectantly
Honestly
And eagerly
 

 

Reasonable Conclusion

Subject close to my heart
My life could very easily nothing be
I require lots
Physically
I am a challenge
This not something new
Been consistent piece of my existence
Growing up
I had no verbal ability
And very little body control
My communication limited to
Handful of signs
Most not real expression
But repetitive movement my body get stuck on
 
I middle child
Looking at my family
Unlikely point at me
And say future writer/public speaker
But here I am
How?
I know what say
I one lucky girl
 
Very discouraging to think
How easy could not be living
Without support
Without eyes willing see past surface
How does one get passed only sight?
Passed stereotypes?
Passed fear of different?
One word
Believe
 
Believe that anyone
More than they appear
Believe in strength
Inside all
Believe in human spirit
Which can
And will conquer
If give chance
 
Who can limit potential?
We can
Simply because cannot see
Ignorance not acceptable
Not anymore
We have too much knowledge
And too much to lose
No future ever reasonable conclusion
 

Hear You But Do You Listen

Hear you but do you listen
Want true voice
Rare is true voice
Want more
Voice
 

Mediocrity

Life will continue to dance in front of me
With no more reality than lights on a screen
 

Remenbered

People who value people truly achieve greatness
Would like to be remembered for seeing merit
And usefulness in all
 

Fortitude

 People yearn to be free from problems
Are not episodes of difficulty our builder of talent and substance?
Getting up
Getting over
Battling issue after issue
We build strength and fortitude

 

Thirty Four

I wished for years to see the sun
My secrets to reveal
The seclusion too severe for words
My soul itself to heal
For years I waited patiently
Willing it to end
I began each path with an open heart
No matter what the bend
Thirty four is almost here
And the sun is not my goal
It is clear to me I need a voice
For then I will be whole
