when I first remember what happened to me as a child, I was filled with this horrible burning feeling of injustice
I cried out
it's not fair! it's not! that other kids play & laugh & grow happy
it's not fair that other people don't know exactly how cruel a person can be
I screamed & cried that it wasn't fair, I shouted it to the heavens
it's not fair!
the counselor with me said no
no it's not fair
but you have something those other kids don't
you know the truth
you are not ignorant to the suffering in the world
& when other people scream
it's not fair!
you are much more inclined to listen
