Why Don't They See Me?

[Canticle]

Damn and double damn, they still don't know me!

For my Family...

I was a thousand miles away when that God damn phone rang. The Rine Stone Cowboy was playing on the vinal. The damn phone rang and my heart stopped. Not one damn word; just a dead ring, I already knew you see. Grandpa and I seldom spoke a word. We just understood. Hell, he passed his flame to me. WW2, proper, old soul, old school. He saw the kindred spirit in me. I never did walk away, damn and damn. He always knew how to find me anyway.

When Grandma Kay walked away. I was sposed to be a child standing there. Hell, I was wondering why my heart hurt so bad that it ran me down the night. I could not understand how I ran so far. Falling and crashing down. How could I be a child? How come death don't scare me anymore. Why won''t the night just let me fade? It's ok Katrina, you can walk away. You gave a dance and smile. You played the old sound and sang through the night. I love you true and see you. Hell, I always know how find you anyway.

I don't really know how to reply except to say that I hear pain and anger in your voice. Very intense.

Please post as you are able. Everyone needs to be heard. I hear you.

Yes there is anger and pain. Half the sorrow was that I had to be alone when I was standing right in front of those that should have been strong enough to love me true. They were all chasing after pearls and diamonds. From breath to death many fail to see that the greatest prize is true love. All the ice cream sundays, cherries on top, pretty things, fake smiles, empires and empty hearts, do not supliment that.

Thank you for your reply, I am greatdul for all the true compassion and heart smiles.
