Keep the Faith-A Poem

Support The Work

Podcast Platforms

Happy Wednesday, my friends. This may seem a little obvious, but I love writing. I’m always experimenting with different forms. The other day, I woke up with the inspiration to write a poem. I’ve never taken a poetry class; I don’t even read poetry. This may be really basic, but most will say it’s not good. I don’t blame you. All I can tell you is the Holy Spirit wrote it; I was just the instrument based on my expenses In the comments, please let me know what you think. This was one of my first.

Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the end result of your faith, the salvation of your souls. 1 Peter 1:8‭-‬9 NIV

People say my head’s in the stars

Can’t they see I’m holding back tears

Can someone please look past the scars

I’m trying to learn how to overcome my fears



People say go on dating apps

No picture I take can hide my wheelchair

Part of me wants to snap

I can’t just wipe it away like nar

Swipe left on the phone

Doesn’t anybody care

Swipe right I still feel alone



Jesus you’re always there

Come save my life

You do what I don’t dare

You are my spiritual wife

May your glory shine

With you I always have hope

May your will be done not mine

My faith is not gone, nope

Your plan will be revealed in time

Disability Limbo Newsletter

I started Letters from the Limbo as a way to connect with you on a deeper level. Twice a month, I send out an email filled with personal anecdotes, professional updates (like my recent reelection as Vice Chair of the NJCDD), and the policy insights I don’t share anywhere else. This isn’t just another email—it’s an unfiltered look at the life of a disability advocate. Join my community and get an exclusive, honest look at the work that matters
