If They Only Knew

By DeathIsNotTheEnd

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

What more is there to say to those who see only what they want to see,What they wish they could be.Who are they to possibly judge me because I can wear better clothes,And drive better cars.They know nothing because they feel nothing,want everything.They no not of the endless nights and hopeless dreams,The crowded thoughts and crystal tears,Many, many forgotten years.They can't understand what I feel every day,Because they can never be what they see every day,Need to be everyday,Hope they could be everyday.If only they knew what it was like to be me,To live like me,To carry shoes too big for feet so fearful,To feel everyday like your nothing,And you'll never be anything.They taunt and they laugh at what they wish they could be,But only the outside they see,Because they will never be more...Then blind at heart.Just tell me what u think.. i don't really expect much.
