I am only h u m a n.
I don’t heal like you do.
My wounds bleed for more than a second or two.
My heart could stop
or be stopped
at any given moment.
I am stronger than you think.
But I do not heal like you do.
Knock me down and I will bruise.
Strike me and I will bleed.
Strangle me and my lungs will fail.
I am only human.
But I am not weak.
I am a survivor.
A fighter.
I am the knowledge that has
s a v e d you
more times than one.
I live to protect.
And I protect to live.
But I am only human.
And I bleed when I fall down.
