Understand?
by Shayla R CakesI know that I don't know many things
I know that I'm learning still.
I know that there are things that I don't know.
I know that I never will.
I know that I don't understand
Why you're doing this to me.
I know that I don't understand
Why my heart won't let it be.
I know that I don't understand
The reasons for the things you do.
I know that I don't understand
why I still love you.
I don't understand your cheating and lies.
I don't understand my incessant cries.
I don't understand what went wrong.
And I suppose I'll never know
I don't quite know why.
I know that you could help me.
But you won't even try.
I don't understand what I did so wrong.
I don't understand at all.
I don't understand why you look away.
And why you never call.
I don't understand why you don't care.
Unless I really do.
Until then, all I can really say
Is I just don't understand you. 11/10/2002 Posted on 11/10/2002
