What The Truth Looks Like
It always seems
that when she starts typing
she has to have me in the room
with her and she seems to need
to say certain words out loud,
so she can say out loud to all
the world that there is an apostrophe
in any given word
She’ll be silent, then
as she’s writing she’ll say, “can’t,”
or “don’t” or “won’t” or even
“shouldn’t”
Well, I sure I should
use this as my written thank you
to her for helping me type
It has been
a long month, and I’m getting
tired of hand-writing all of my
thoughts on to paper, so that I can
type them all out so people can
read my writing
Well
I thought
I’d do it anyway, so you have a bit
of insight into the craziness of
getting over some of the pain
someone has to go through in
their life
Well, maybe you’ll also
understand why people want to get
out of a hospital or why they
want to live on their own and
have their life back
Well, that’s just my little
theory
You’d have to ask everyone
else what they go through,
but maybe this all will give
you some idea of what the
truth looks little sometimes
