The you you see is different
The pieces not the same
The one consistent feature
Is the tag that bears your name
You’ve learned to concur challenge
You’ve learned to ward off harm
But nothing can prepare you
To lose a leg or arm
So this is new and different
A bell can’t be un rung
You can’t erase the present
Or go back when you were young
You have a newfound mission
To work with what you have
To learn that you are grateful
To live, and love, and laugh
