Admetus

I am a funny tom who loves playing
I wonder why the other toms don’t let me play with them
I hear their laughter from a distance
I see them teasing each other playfully
I want to join in with them
I am a funny tom who loves playing

I pretend that I’m joining in with the fun
I feel sad when I sit on the sidelines, just watching
I touch the air, wanting to be a part of tag
I worry my whole life will be spent watching, never joining in
I cry the nights when I’m by myself
I am a funny tom who loves playing
