Survivor

You look over she has a smile 
But you don't realize the pain inside her
She laughs and plays til the day goes away 
Just a normal kid you would think 
But behind those laughs and smiles 
You wouldn't know she's a survivor 
From a disease that took everything but her spirit 
When people thought it was too late 
A miracle happen that day 
She made it through sitting in the hopsital room 
Behind those laughs and smiles 
You wouldn't know she's a survivor

Lovely write Katelin! The resilience of children is often astounding. They see life from the glass-is-half-full point. And adults can learn alot from them. Nicely done!
