Insensitive

I know that you are not trying to be insensitive when you say it.
But you are.
So please choose your words with care.

When you say that you should use your excuse too
It makes me feel like
Glass is cutting into my skin.
Like fire ants are crawling over my body.
Like I want to scream.

I cannot do these things.
I wish I could.
But you don't understand what your words do.
How insensitive you're being when you say
Excuse.

It's not an Excuse.
It's a condition.
An illness.
A curse.

Something that you do not have.
Something I hope you never do.
Something you do not understand.
Your insensitive words, make you insensitive too.
