Don't Fall Down
BAM! She hit the wall again.
Get up and walk away
People laughing and joking
It's ok. She is lauging too.
Hair in the face
Obstructing the view
Eyes look around
As if completely askew.
BAM! She tripped on the road.
Getup and walk away
People teasing and pointing
It's ok. She can handle that too.
Blurry vision
Can't see straight ahead
Focus on the ground
As a trained purebread.
