In the gym
Three others are with me
I say:
“I will try to touch the rim!”
“Alright!” Shouts one of the kids with me
I stand back 30ish feet from the rim
Readying myself for what was to come
“Just think of it as jumping.”
“Don’t overthink it.”
Says a voice in my head
I start to run
Step
Step
Step
JUMP!
Soaring
Soaring
Soaring
Contact
Falling
Falling
Landing
Running
In exhilaration
A feeling of purest joy.
Why isn’t there a day people know about to recognize people who are deaf and hard of hearing?
Why can’t there be one?
It is a day but…
I myself had you look it up to know about it.
And I am hard of hearing.
Why does the world pretend to act like nothing bad is happening?
Why does the government, meant to safeguard the people, suddenly make this a monarchy?
I find it stupid that some people think that this is all fine and dandy.
Sometimes I worry that I will get treated differently because of my differences.
I know that it probably won't happen in school with teachers
but you can't stop kids from doing anything
not in middle school
