Mentally Impaired

by Jennifer RIP Lesthat Hayden   Jul 31, 2007


Jimmy will never know why E=MC^2
Because Jimmy is mentally impaired
Jimmy's cock eyed twisted face smiled
He was just a misunderstood child
Jimmy can not be repaired
So everybody stared
Jimmy was retarded
So from everyone else he was parted
A friend is all Jimmy will want
He doesn't understand their taunt
Why call him weird and why be mean
He just wanted to be a normal teen
Jimmy's IQ may not be high
But he knows something's wrong
And he knows why
He wants someone to hold his hand
He wants someone to understand
Why can't they just accept what's wrong?
Why can't we all just get along?
Jimmy's brain may be slow
But that doesn't mean he can not know
He knows his shapes and knows his colors
He knows he has two loving brothers
He knows they're smart and he is dumb
But that doesn't mean he is numb
He feels the pain we do as well
He can not do much but point and tell
It's time to know why Jimmy's sad
He never did anything bad
He just wants to make a friend
Someone to hold until the end

Shhh! Colors and brothers doesn't rhyme.... :D
