Walk in my shoes - A poem from an Injured Worker

If you could walk in my shoes, You would see, I paid my dues, 
I worked hard my whole life through, Even though, I no longer do.  

You would see how hard I tried. You would see how hard I cried. 
Can't you see my condition is real, Even though you can't see what I feel.   

Your support could lift me up. That would be amazing luck. 
My disability; you can't see, But I need you to believe in me.  

Trust me when I say, A friend could make my day. 
Please lend a helping hand, With your support, I can stand. 

A little goes along way. A good friend won't turn away. 
A little kind word can lift my soul. A little kind word can make me whole.
