Welcome: A Poem

I read about you in a book once

I heard your story during show and tell

I was insulted when they asked my name

But didn’t ask who I was

Rage had never been you’re forte

Just a state of mind

One more time

You scream her name

One more time you’re blind

You belt a prayer of mercy

High out of my range

Your victim is here

They whispered to you

Something to gentle to hear

And one more time

You’re deaf

We are here to build character

I’ll let my persona self destruct

You brought me misery

Thank you

Now I can brag that I’m hurting

Thank you

I’m pleased I can be of help

I live above you

Because I live

When you want me to die

I die above you

Because you live

When you learn that I loved you still

You brought me misery

Thank you

You’ve made me check the lost and found

And now I know I lost something

Is that where my voice has gone?

I’ll bow and smile

Thank you

Now give me what I cannot give you

My maker and breaker alike

Give me  

You’re welcome
