Heartbeat of My Life

A beating heart results in 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 traveled, 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
