If you know pain like I do, But still you are here, Carrying on. Well done, I am proud of you. These poems are about, The pain I've endured, The things helping me through it, And The beauty of the little things. Careful, You're holding my book, But you're also holding my heart. Don't break it. - TheAuthor
