Resilent

People think I'm resilent, that I bounce back.

I don't come back bitter from any attack.

People are surprised after all I've been through,

they wonder with this just what I had to do.

Went volunteering and saw people in bad situations,

but they still had faith as a steady station.

From seeing this I knew I didn't have it so bad,

for that I was thankful, but for them I felt sad.

So I helped them out in any way I could,

by painting or putting in new wood.

This put smiles on their faces you see

and it helped to put a smile also on me.

So when I think I'm getting bitter I think of them,

that they still had faith even with every bend.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Written in 2003. People think I'm resilent and this why. I have the unprivelaged people to thank for that.
