This is my house ...



This is my house - you're not here everyday

My dad leaned against his armchair - 

The breaded cod was starting to burn in the oven - 

He started shouting - 

You can't tell me what to do - you're in my house - this my house

We've not got carers - you're not here all the time - you don't know how we are -

Ten to twelve is just too early for dinner - 

I was a twelve year old boy again, my heart jumping out of my narrow chest - 

I remembered Jonathon's words - 

It's the disease, not the person he'd said -
