They took me to the doctor,
They said he would be nice,
They told me he would help me
They said he’d give advice.
I believed what I was told,
For my mummy never lies,
Instead I should have searched
For the truth hid in her eyes.
I wondered why she got upset
But I never really thought
That maybe I didn’t act
In the way that good girls ought.
She was crying when she left me,
I begged for her to stay,
But the doctors wouldn’t let her,
They made her go away.
The doctors looked me over,
They prodded at my side,
They did all sorts of tests on me
Till I very nearly cried.
They said if I behaved
And did what I was told,
Then I could have a blanket
Instead of being cold.
After that, if I was good
And ate all that’s on my plate,
Then maybe I could watch TV,
Or talk to my best mate.
And if I really tried
And worked with all my might,
Perhaps then would let me
Have a visitor one night.
But eating wasn’t easy,
I just couldn’t life my fork,
So they wouldn’t let me move,
I couldn’t even walk.
They put me in a wheel chair,
But still the food was bad,
I couldn’t sleep at all
When I counted what I’d had.
They wanted me to eat too much,
They watched me growing fat,
I don’t supposed they cared though,
They’re not much good at that.
Finally they released me,
Expecting me to fly,
But like a bird that’s wounded,
I fell straight out ‘ the sky.
I landed back amongst them,
In the hospital’s sterile nest,
They said I needed feeding,
They said I needed rest.
Again they saw me growing,
Tripling in size,
Ballooning to a monster
Right before their eyes.
Strangely though, they liked this,
They thought it made me right,
They never saw the desperation
Cried alone at night.
Once more they tried to free me,
Once more I had a try,
But birds with broken wings
Simply cannot fly.

Excellent writing here Ami_and_me,
Are these 'professionals' ever any help? I do often wonder.
Keep up the great writing, perhaps doing this'll prove to help, one day soon I hope!
With love
Dean:-) |
