When you walk by me and see my struggles

Please don't pity me

When you see that I need help with the door

Please don't pity me

Could you open it please?

When you see that I'm not as fast as you

Please don't pity me

Just give me patience.

When your not sure what I'm saying

Don't pity me

Just ask me again I will try to answer clearer.

Please I don't need your pity

I need your compassion

I need your patience

I need your respect

As I respect you for having a body that works

Please don't pity me

For having a body that doesn't work as well as you think it should.

I don't pity you for being you

So please don't pity me for me being me.
