Trapped My life Cerebral Palsy



Waking up with stiffness and tightness throughout my body.
Shortness breathe grasping for air
feeling like I’m a jack-in- the-box
As the spasms made their appearance known
feeling vertical as I wake up and say good morning world here I’m and my CP too.
Tightness in my legs that remind me of a hard pretzel
Feeling like my brain is contently on 90s dial up in the modern day
Trapped that’s what I feel and that’s what I’m
