What A Question To Ask – Written Monday 9th October 2006 (Aged 31)

What A Question To Ask

who am i?
what a question to ask
let me feast on vanity and ego
before i start
i looked through a list
of disorders i could be
autism or attachment disorder
hey, they all suit me
who am i?
does it really matter
at my age,
the sound of my heart
becomes feet with a tiny patter
how can i blame
conditions and disorders
for perceived failures and the past
who am i?
likes all of us, i am many parts
i am not a failure
and negative traits are down to me
it does not take classroom education
to help us understand responsibility
i can dwell all day
but i think about our love maintaining
and it all feels okay
