My parents don't listen
They won't believe me
They are caught up in the past
And in a book that they
Think defines me
The knowledge that they have of
The labels
Which I have
With each definition
Defining meMedications and pills
That are designed for the labels
And yet they still forget
And so here I am
Trying to explain to my parents
But they won't listenYou know I never really thought
Much of it before
But I now realize that it really
Bothers the fuck out of me
That our human kind
Has all these labels
That are true but we have taken the definitions
And symptoms as
That they apply to everyone with the label...
People have told me
"That makes sense"
After I share a label
That I haveHow come...why is it
That people tend to use "they" when they really are talking about a singular person?
You may think there's no difference
But there really isCause apparently
It's also ok
To rate a
Book and/or movie
That is true, a some sort of biographyOn a scale of 1-10 how would you rate it?
