Not Once
not once have i heard a sorry
not once have i seen –
even one ounce of compassion
did i miss something?
not once have i heard interested words
or an understanding tone
oh, i know…
i know you have this, ‘so called disorder’
but to me, you just look so alone
not once have i seen kindness
i know that you have told me –
that displaying emotions –
does not happen because of this disorder
seems like a lot of bad moments to me
a dose of inadequate rudeness
James Garratt – Tuesday 14th February 2006
