They can't define me..
.I've heard it all before
I wouldn't graduate school
I couldn't hold a job or have kids
my dad said I shouldn't let others stop me
he said prove them all to be fools
So that is what I did.
Wouldn't
I'd never make it through my lessons
I'd never live on my own at all
that I'd live with my parents my whole life.
So I left it with God through Him it could happen.
In His time not mine.
Couldn't
I couldn't hold down a job for long.
I couldn't get married, no one would want me
I couldn't have kids of my very own
But I was sure God would prove them all wrong
I'd just have to wait and see.
Shouldn't
That I shouldn't try to drive a car
That I shouldn't expect a normal life.
again dad's words broke through
don't let people control who you are.
I've done it all and God gave me a family
and for thirty one years ago I said I do
and have been someone's wife.
********
************
As a kid I never gave up I used to joke
that if I ever did get married I'd marry a model
and if I ever had kids I'd want a little girl
then a little boy with blonde hair and blue eyes.
God heard my silent dreams when my heart spoke.
This life I have is my own kind of normal
I live my life as God planned it and not
how the worlds views of me would be as they
proved to be total myths and lies.
I'm the child with health issues yet my two sibling quit school.
so I was the only one to graduate. I learned to drive but won't
unless there is an emergency. I prefer to walk or get rides.
It feel safer that way.
I married the model and have his pictures framed
Then got my little girl first and then my blonde hair
little boy with bright blue eyes.
I learned to drive to say I could.
and if I wasn't able to do something I wasn't ashamed
as it was just something I wasn't supposed to do
and of what others think why should I care.
they don't know me at all.
