Through Her Able Eyes (Post for Cafe Dissensus)

Hi everyone! Today I'd like to share with you a poem of mine that came out in Cafe Dissensus. It is written from the perspective of a woman with bipolar disorder who wonders if she could dare to claim her illness to be as serious as physical disability. I look forward to your thoughts in the comments. Have you ever had a nagging thought where you didn't know if your circumstances in life were as grave as the more socially acknowledged tragedies?
