Disability
a curse or a blessing in disguise
an disadvantage or and advance
the ups and downs of my disability
l wonder why they call it that
'disability'
let's break it down
and see what we found
'dis' lets see is my opinion
it can mean a lot of things
it could mean l can't do something
it could mean that I'm making fun somebody
'ability'
to do whatever you want
to say whatever
the ability to do anything
now that we got that out of the way
this is what a disability means to me
it's a blessing
it makes me unique in my own special way
yes it has ups and downs
but even without it
l would still have ups and downs
so what's the difference
it an advance
l didn't search for the disability
but it looks like the disability was search for me
l like no l love my disability because to me it's not
a disadvantage, a curse
it's what makes me me
so when u see a person walking funny, in a wheelchair, speech is bad, or doesn't look normal
don't feel sorry cause we don't want it
don't feel sad cause we don't need it
don't laugh cause it's not funny
don't point cause it's wrong
just keep moving
you can smile and say hey to us
don't treat us like a disability
trust us like we're normal
cause at the end of the day that's who we are normal people like everyone.
