What Would I Tell Children

Often I think in dark alone,
What I can tell children about my life.

Would it be just an routine that I put on?
Or that I have wasted too much time
On dwelling on small scratched wounds?

No, wounds I won't call them.
They are but some electric shocks
From cars' door and house's wall.

Shall I tell them I wasn't content?
Or that I all I care was for self?
And that I was too emotional?

Shall I tell them I'm a person of no opioions?
Living a life of unsure of my idenitity?
And that I'm a person of mean information?

Shall I tell them I don't understand
The art of questioning, and listening?
That I never understood a person before on this earth?

Shall I tell them I have poor memories
Of friends, their events, birthdays, and to call?
That I was never a friend, but too judgemental?

What I would tell children about me?
Will I live a life of routine and nothing more?
