I don't understand you.

By arosebyanyothername

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I can’t tell if you’re my friend. I just can’t comprehend. How can you be two. I just don’t understand you. You make my brain twist and turn. Of who you are I just can’t be certain. You just make me so confused. Too much of the time, I feel like I’m being used. You can be the sweetest person I’ve ever known. You comfort me when I feel so alone. You can make me feel perfect. At times with you I feel terrific. Yet you know what makes me tick. And at times you make me sick. Sometimes you treat me as if I’m a stranger. Sometimes being your friend can put me in danger. Cuz when you are upset. I wish we would have never met. You confused all of the people around you. You treat us wonderful, and as if we are not even human too. You have to figure out who you are. And stop judging us for you are too far From the truth to realize that you are wrong. To you I sing this song. You must stop and think. And let this sink Into your mind. For you must always be kind. Cuz I know you have a beautiful heart. And it’s a gorgeous piece of art. That God has created. And I hope that it will never be faded. But you can’t treat everyone. The way you have. You can’t run Away from us because we love you. And you know that will always be true. Written March 28th, 2002 © on Mar 28 2002 09:20 AM PST   10 • 0
