You Are a Child – Written Thursday 16th February 2006 (Aged 30)

You Are a Child

you are a child
one,
who has never grown up
you act like a child
it should be deeply tragic
but sadly,
you never display any magic
and sadly,
you never display any desire to learn
or any desire to change
you are a child
one,
who has never grown up
one,
who has never had to deal with life
never had to face reality
and when you did,
when reality came crashing down
you could only think of yourself
you are a child
one,
who has never grown up
emotionally you remain undeveloped
you are a child

James Garratt – Thursday 16th February 2006
