Understand

~Understand~

You’ve never seen the courage I’ve known
Its colors richness, brightness won’t appear within your narrow view
I’ll never glow, the way that you wanted me to glow
Your present’s dominations the judgments made on me, by you

As these single thoughts grow, you and I see in different eyes
I understand, but I am still too proud to mention it, to you
The shades and shadows of my perception, are tainted now with hurtful words and actions
I realize what I am now to scared to mention to you, for I choice now to fly towards the sky

You say you understand, But you don’t understand
You say you’ll never give up seeing eye to eye
But never is a promise and you can’t afford to lie
Sadly, we’ll never meet… eye to eye

You’ve never touched, felt or understood these things that I hold
This skin of deepened emotions lies well beneath my own
You’ll never feel the heat of this soul, the burning urging feelings that I hold, deep within
My fever burns me deeper than I’ve ever shown, to you

You’ll say feeling me in your dreams was ever enough
I’ll say it’s easier than it seems, though torture is all I see in my dreams now
You’ll say you’ll never love me again, no matter how far I fly
You’ll never wake up knowing how or why, I’ve tortured myself with so many desires

You say you understand, yet you’ll never understand
I’ll say you’ll never wake up knowing how or why
You’ll say you’ll need peace of mind, knowing and hearing my torn drenched cries
But I’ll never be able to stop the tears from crying, for you
