Lyric

They checked the boxes

They wrote me down

No urgent changes

No need to come around

My hands were steady

My answers came through

I gave them enough

To close the file on cue

Temperature normal

Voice controlled

Breathing acceptable

Nothing to hold

Clean enough to leave

Still enough to trust

If I can stand upright

They call that enough

No visible reason

No visible need

I kept the line moving

So they stopped reading me

I signed the form

I took the stairs

Counted every railing

Like a private prayer

No one saw the error

Running through my skin

The system kept responding

So they let me back in

Eyes forward

Pulse contained

No visible reason

To change my name

Clean enough to leave

Still enough to trust

If I can stand upright

They call that enough

No visible reason

No visible need

I kept the line moving

So they stopped reading me

Do not call it safety

Just because I stood

Do not call it healing

Just because I could

I learned the right posture

I learned the right face

I became the kind of patient

No one had to chase

Clean enough to leave

Still enough to trust

If I can answer clearly

They send me back untouched

No visible reason

No visible need

I was falling in order

So they stopped reading me
