The cracking of the bone
echoed deep within my soul.
I faded in and out.
My limbs became cold.
What seemed like seconds
was more like hours.
The beeping was steady.
Guests came bearing flowers.
Courage is something that comes from the heart.
It brings us hope and dreams, but others want to take it away.
They want us to feel regret and sorrow, but we must stay strong.
Courage is something that drives us to dream.
I looked up at the sky
This is what I see
Everyone is staring at me
I gave it a shrug
Just like a bug
Running in such a large place
With so much space
My leg only being one
I was only 7
