Today I Went

Went Online Today to Say Hello to My Friends
But Something Was Wrong it All Came to a End
I Know I Never Said or Did Anything Wrong
I Thought These Friendships Were Strong
As Hard as I Try No One Answer My Plea
Why All of a Sudden They Stop Talking to Me
Then I Remember I Explained it Might Take Me
Awhile
That When I Was Born Sometimes I Have a Brain
Like a Child
I May Be Slow and Not Capable of Doing What
I Wish I Could
But Explaining My Condition I Guess I Was Misunderstood
So Judgmental and Not Even Taking Time for Me to
Explain My Disability
Even Criticizing Cause I Am Not perfect the way they wanted me to be
So Maybe Truth Is Don't Explain What Your Life  to Those Who Don't Want to Understand
But Remember the Day I Was Born Not Matter What I Was Given the Courage to Stand My Ground
Don't Be Judgmental Don't Even Look Away  and Pretend You Don't See
But I Know in My Heart I to Have the Right to Live and Enjoy this Unacceptable Sociality
