I am

Denise Chopp

I am considerate and outgoing.
I wonder if there is a real me
hidden underneath all my disabilities.
I hear the angels singing.
I see the angels flying around the lights.
I want to play with all the little children.
I am considerate and outgoing.
I pretend that I am normal.
I feel like I can touch the clouds
and the stars in the sky.
I touch other people”s hearts when
they hear my interesting stories.
I worry about every little thing.
I feel like I am invisible sometimes.
I cry when I see or hear children being hurt.
I am considerate and outgoing.
I understand that beauty is only skin deep.
I say, “You can do anything you want to
do if you put your mind to it.”
I dream of one day owning my own business.
I try to do the best I can in everything I do.
I hope that other people like me
can see the good things in life like I do.
I am considerate and outgoing.
