Are You Sure
no, it is never your fault
never down to you
nothing you could have done
not your problem
circumstance,
beyond your control
the world is to blame
no, it is never your fault
and others –
have to accept –
that you –
will never take responsibility
never empower yourself
strengthen your backbone
no, it is never your fault
never a sorry
or, that was me
never a chance to change
or to be conciliatory
James Garratt – Tuesday 2nd January 2007
