Dis-abled


People think just because I have crutches, I’m stupid.

Since I’m stupid, I can’t walk.

Since I can’t walk, I need help.

Since I need help, because I’m different .

Since I’m different,they have to give me pity.

Since I get pity, I won’t go far in life.

Since I won’t go far in life, I won’t need an education.

Since I won’t need an education, I don’t need to be counted in society.

Since I don’t need to be counted in society, I am nothing.

Since I’m nothing, I have a disability.

Since I have a disability, I’m nothing.

I have a disability.

People think just because.
