“SPECIAL”
I was excited, my heart was beating fast
I opened my eyes finally i will be able to meet my family.
I cried hard as i could, but there was a worried look in the doctor’s eyes
I don’t mind because i was so happy and excited
I can also hear cries coming from other babies,they were like music in my ears
Are you going to clean me now? Please make it quick
I really want to feel the warm and loving hug of my mom, i want to meet my family
I know they are also excited to meet me
Doctor, why did you separate me?
Why are you calling the guardian of my mom?
Doctor is there anything wrong from me?
Who is she? She said she is my older sister? Why does she look at me with pity?
Oh i heard you said i was a special child, what does it mean?
My sister just nodded to the doctor, why are you just staring sister?why does the doctor won’t allow you to come near me?
Why am i special? Why can’t i go to my mom?
What are you doing doctor? You said i need to be tested first, what test do i need to do?
Does special means more test?
All i want now is my mom and i’m hungry
Finally, i met my mom
Hey mom I’m so happy I’m on you lap now they said im special was that the reason of your teardrops?
Now, i dont want to become special but my family loved and treated me with special care
I start loving being special
Mom when i grow up, i want to become special for you
Our families growing, but why is that my nephew and niece are different from me? They also said Im special
I don’t mind, they treat me extra special
We play, we laugh, we cry, we fight
Going outside our house is a different story
I hate it the most, it gives me chills
When we walk i can feel those eyes staring at me like they hate me are you disgusted because I was special?
I can hear the mother of the kids warning their child not to go near me,why? I don’t have a disease, but hey am I that special?
I saw a lady approached my sister that makes her annoyed
She held me away and said
You are a princess that’s what make you special
Princesses are kind and beautiful with a loving people that surrounds them
that’s what make them special
I don’t understand and i dont care
But i was thinking who is more special ME or YOU?
I am not SPECIAL
I AM LUCKY because GOD gave me SPECIAL people to love and protect me
Im surrounded by SPECIAL PEOPLE with big hearts
