My Friend

 I hide behind my friends name

Because I am so shy.

I feel that as I can play the game

to read, write, love and sigh.

Now I hide and blush for real

my fears have been sent to me.

More seizures I have had this month,

more than I think should be.

The pain I feel is real

the hurt I feel is clear.

Many more like me there are

many more like me who will share,

the hurt of seizures often is for the mind.
