I have a disability that you may not see
It hurts me so when people stand and stare at me
As I park my car in that yellow space over by the tree
What do you expect me to look like?
I'm a human being, not a four headed pike!
We can all be so judgemental
that I understand, but please next time think
before you jump up and cause a stink
You don't know my life and story
Its filled with hope and praying for glory
The day after the crash they said to me
"please consider having amputation at the knee"
Would I consider? Are you serious? Stop listen
most definitely not I'll fight for this mission
I will prove to you my ankle can be saved
no matter how many bones you have to shave
The last operation was a triple graft and fusion
left me on one leg, boy what a confusion
I slipped and broke the bone in my wrist
All in cast, just me and my two kids
So think before you stand and stare
you don't know what happened to the person over there
Just remember not every disability you can see
people constantly judging, but they don't know the history
There are many disabilities too many to count
So maybe have a think before you shout
and say, or do something you will regret
leaving that person over there very upset

I have recently discovered writing and the enjoyment it gives me to release a lot of good and bad memories. Growing up was tough and to put all that in words gives great freedom.
