Poem: I am a Miracle

I am a miracle.
I wonder who to save.
I hear your prayers.
I see your heartache.
I want to help.
I am a miracle.

I pretend to be happy.
I feel put down.
I do not distress.
I worry no one cares.
I cry at your loss.
I am a miracle.

I understand how you feel.
I say what is needed.
I wish you believe in me.
I try to save you.
I hope you know.
I am a miracle.

T.H., age 17
