Handicapped

Helplessness is not their weakness
Amiably searching to find their way
Never throwing their hands in
Dealing the cards they continue to play
Ignorance is sadly mistaken
Corrupted minds already at check mate
Anger and frustrated by the unawareness
Poorly trained society is their inevitable fate
Pleased at the simplest achievements
Every day actions we simply dismiss
Disabled is just a word, let us all see the heavenly bliss
