Conundrum

I forget things a lot
Its not on purpose
I know it annoys you
And for that, I'm sorry
My brain goes faster than my mouth
Mixing my words up
You laugh at my stuttering
Did you know it kills me inside
Do you even care
To you I'm just a sideshow freak
A person to taunt
And not to love 
Do you even know
What it's like in my shoes
Do you even care
No. That would be too simple
Just point and laugh
I am your toy 
And you play with my feelings
Way too Damn often
