Day 138 - For Athena Orchard


I read this article today and was inspired by this young, innocent, soul taken too soon. Positivity in the face of agony and pain must take a lot of courage. I can't put myself in her shoes, or know what she went through, but I can follow her lead and remain positive throughout life's ups and downs.

I know this post is a bit of a break from the typical, but I know my baby has a heart that understand mine.

Read Athena Orchard's Story here.

I see my reflection,
In the morning, everyday,
I know I'm slowly dying,
But that's not what my mirror says

Inside there is a story,
Filled with life and love,
Happiness there to guide me,
With prayers sent above.
There may not be a happy ending,
As the pain in me unfolds,
But every day we have is special,
So I make the most and take control.

You know, life is only bad,
If you let it get that way,
We all have our chances,
So live a life of purpose everyday.

Life, it is a game,
With love it's special prize,
Once you win, open your heart,
Through all the lows and highs.

Now you know my name,
And the words that I write,
But the real me's here inside,
Writing the happy story of my life.
