My child seeks hope.
My child seeks understanding.
For a lifetime,
I have sought hope
Hope of understanding
Understanding much.
My child sought understanding.
What is cerebral palsy?
What is epilepsy?
My child sought understanding.
My child sought understanding.
How do I stop the teasing?
If you give me just the right words,
I know I can stop the teasing.
My child sought hope.
My child seeks understanding.
What can I say?
What can I do?
Give me the magic words.
My child seeks hope.
My child seeks understanding.
This was given for some reason.
Don't tell me to ignore this.
Don't tell me I must ignore a part of myself.
Don't tell me to sacrifice myself.
Is that really the secret to understanding?
I do not understand.
Is the price of your love
That other people must be wrong?
Is the cost of my love that other people are wrong?
This day, may we love freely.
In our diversity, may we all be worthy.
