Being disabled
Being disabled, its a tough thing. No one wants to hold you, touch you, kiss you goodnight. Everyone thinks that you have some sort of terminal diesease and it must be contagious so they should stay away from you. The last hug I had was from a rockstar, thats my first hug in....well, forever. And that hug means the world to me. Not even my parents hug me. Im far from contagious, I dont even bite unless you say so. If people arent afraid of me, they're trying to protect me. From what though? Ive seen it all. Nothing can happen that will hurt me anymore. Honest. Im a big girl, I can do this. If I have to do this alone, so be it. I just want to be held. Im internally normal. I cry, I laugh, I sing, I dance, I talk. Im just like you. Maybe less pretty and a little more high strung, simply because Ive been through a hell of a lot more than most my age, and its made me a little bitter, a little tougher to deal with sometimes. Yes. My parents are even afraid of me. I dont understand. I really dont. I didnt ask to be born fucked. I just was. I didnt have a conversation with 'God' in the womb that went: 'So God, I think you should fuck me over, just to make life a little tougher' and he didnt say 'OK Kirsten, Ill do that for you.' Nope. It just happened. It isnt your fault, it isnt my fault. So dont just walk away from me. Dont say you love me just cause you pity me. Fuck you and your pity. If you really want to love me, prove it. Stop making stupid comments about my leg 'Well can it be fixed' 'Are you going to fix it???' No and no. This is me, take it or leave it. Forget everything you see and follow what you feel.
