Feeling Like A Rag Doll


 

Feeling Like A Rag Doll,
I am disabled by birth.
I am paralyzed from
the waist down!!!!

All of my life I've lived
with this!! I cannot 
stand-up on my own
but with help I can!!

When I do stand, my
legs feels weak &
limb!!! I really felt like
a "Rag Doll"!! 

There are days that
I felt like I can't take
this anymore & 
felt like amputating
my legs!!

I'm thinking to myself
if the doctors can't do
it, I'll do it myself!!
That how desperate 
I was!!!
