Lifes Tale

It was a cold winters day

when my life changed

it was'nt a crime

or a selfish act

just a driver's morals not being up to scratch.

It has left me broke

it has left me beat

it has left me unable to support my self on my very own two feet.

Im digging in

for I will not quit

I got my hope and got my pride

and my partner by my side

Im going to make it

I will recover from this.

Two years it has taken me to come to this

for my will is strong and I will persist.

My disability is just another of my qualities it will not kill me, and it has helped me become 
the writer I am.
