How?

by Christel Crews

How do I describe
exactly how I feel inside
How will you understand
without seeing through my protective hands

How can I find a starting line
when it all began long before time
How can I hope for a future
when you refuse to begin on this venture

How can you say you understand
you have no emotions, you're a man
How can I be so blind
to not see this coming from any moment in time

How did I become so abused
I did it to myself, I did it to amuse
How do I remove this gift of nature
time will tell, in the presence of our Creator

How can we say we are friends
when pride controls and never bends
How come you love me when alone
then in the presence of others, change your tone

How will I describe
exactly how I feel inside
Will you ever understand
without seeing through my protective hands

How do I describe
something I don't understand inside

Author's Note: Lets see, I wrote this one back in High School as well. I know it could use some work... any suggestions?

Well, the path is always from inside to inside. The path which leads to understanding, a necessary element for a lasting friendship and love. The anxieties are well expressed.
