If I could do one thing

If I could do one thing

by Logan Niblo

I am a girl
Youngest of six
Seen as a burden
To those that I love
Too loud and annoying
Who always needs help
And cannot fend for themselves

I am a girl
Playing by herself
Being seen but not heard
By my siblings playing together

If I could do one thing
It would be to make someone happy

I am an adult
Although still quite young
But committed none the less
I am a carer
With an โ€˜Aโ€™ qualification
Looking after young people
I am a professional
Attending their meetings
Helping make the decisions
In my young peoples lives

If I could do one thing
It would be to make someone happy
To see them smile
Knowing that down to me
Even if itโ€™s just for a short
Moment of time
