Life's Life

She was dancing to the melodies of her life when she accidentally lost her legs. She then wrote poetry and songs until fate paralysed her hands. She then started singing her story to the world and time snatched the sweet voice away from her. One day, the earth found her dead but her life took life in a million hearts.
P.S. - On this International Women's Day, shout out to all those unbent women. With this poem, I would like to tell you, all the women out there, not to turn and walk back. Go ahead, come what may. You are an amazing child of nature. Spread your magic around. Keep smiling, keep spreading smiles and keep uplifting.
