Handicap

A Poem by Manda
"

She is paralyzed for life... trapped for life inside her body.

"
How can one live
When you have nothing to live for?

How can one live
When you're invincible to the world?

***

How would you feel
If you couldn't do anything?

What if you couldn't go to the movies
Or go shopping with your friends?

What if you were forced to stay home
Unable to have any fun?

What if when people looked at you
They laughed?

What if everyday....
You were forced to let others help you?

How would you feel?

Would you feel trapped
Inside your body?

***

I know that is how my sister feels.

Everyday I watch her
In the corner of my eye.

And each day
I just want to cry...

She struggles
Through life.

I watch her try to fight her strengths
But she never seems to win.

Her bones are too weak
And never seem to budge.

***

I ask God one question,
Why?

Why, did you choose her?

Why did you have to make her
Handicap?

I thought this was sad. I feel bad for her. :(
I wish she didn't have to be in a wheel chair.
I'm sorry for her...
Thanks for sharing. :(
