A special poem for the Children with Disability (CWD)on the International Day of People with Disability – Dec 3.2021
They may laugh for what you haveBut they don’t know it’s strength.They may think it is worthless,But it holds the treasures inside.
They may not support you fullyBut that is because of jealousyIt’s okay to be sorryBut it is because they judge much.
As they may hate your coverDon’t worry, it’s because theyHaven’t read it.You may be unaware
But it’s because you haven’tActivated it, it’s triggerComes from painful words from peopleBut remember this.
In darkest hours, there is always lightFrom their bad words, there are peopleWho will be with youIf people say you can’t
Tell them I CAN, I WILL, I MUSTWhen someone tells you can’tIt activates your soul, to showThe world what you have
That’s the time when your potentialIs unleashed, you show your greatest goalYour achievement
To all CWD’s I tell you this
Never give up, show them what you haveBecause GOD gave that potentialNever feel down to people’s bad wordsCause they only fuel you up
Transforming you into a powerful Machine, it doesn’t matter howYour condition is, the only thingThat matter is your inner strength
You have that colorful potentialThat maps you among peopleLet me tell you this neverEver be discouraged
Thin, Fat, you can’t walkHave problem that tackle youBut remember, those obstaclesMake you become super
Change your story, and makePeople believe that you haveSomething, God let it happenFor a purpose.
That’s why you are specialYou have something differentFrom others, cause GODGave it to you.
Remember, your voiceCan make a changeOne team, one dream
It’s all within youYour voice standsOut others
Let the world hear your voiceAnd break from theLimits of lifeYou have potentialsBeyond the eyes.
