Understand me

Understand me

Could you
Hear me when I cried
Because You weren't there
When I was lost inside

Would you
Be here now if I begged
Would you listen
To the words I'veĀ already said

Even if I wanted you too
There's nothing within you
That couldĀ comprehend the truth

You couldn't possibly
Understand me

You don't know what it's like
To be completely
Concealed
Inside my reality

I suffer
When they mess me up
I struggle
Giving others love

But you'll never realize the truth
About me
You'll never hear me scream
For mercy

You say
It'll go away
But I'm too lost
To get through the day

You don't know my depression
You don't see my reflection
So how could you possibly
Understand me

People can relate
But they all have a different fait

And I've put up with all I can take
I wish somebody
Could understand me
When I say
When I beg
For mercy

There was a depth of emotion in your words, that grabbed and pulled on the heart. " Concealed inside my reality"

I connected with the struggle of trying to get someone to really understand what it's like under your skin, what you deal with in your mind. Really great writing!Ā
