A beating heart results in a life. My purpose is to give life to a part of our history as a ward of the state of New South Wales. It seemed to us that we were insignificant, it seemed to us it did not matter if we lived or died. I had a beating heart and I was not invisible and we had feelings that were ignored. In life’s energy we mattered and on a universal plain every child should.
It’s my journey it’s in my heart
With every beat right from the start
My road travelled, the rugged truth
Happy times raised from abuse
You will feel as I tell my tale
I had the strength to just not fail
So my book is something dear
I shared my life so in it fear
Take what you will from what I share
To another this story does not compare
It’s my journey, it’s in my heart
With every beat
With no repeat
