Olivia 29/03 14 How nice it must be

How nice it must be for you,
No injections four time’s day,
No lumps,
No bumps,
No big blue marks,
How nice it must be for you,
No pricking of the finger,
No blood to withdraw,
No marks on the finger,
No stings at the tip,
How nice it must be for you,
To not have the worry,
To not have the trembles,
To not have the shakes,
How nice it must be for you,
To not have people stare,
To not be watched for your health,
How nice it must be for you,
To lead a normal life,
But I am just like you,
Maybe just a bit more special,
I like who I am.
