    Trying To Understand

    I tried to listen to everything you had to say
    You had nothing to say
    So you gave excuses and lies
    Wanted to see your point of view
    Instead I got your social system
    Left with a little history of you and me
    Hard not to judge
    I listened, I observed
    Your tone of voice says your scared
    Your facial expressions say you don’t know what your doing
    Your emphasis are all in the wrong places
    When compared to the way life is
    Your posture screams of mixed emotions
    One defensive and the other affectionate
    Your selfish
    Hurt by your actions
    I need your Love back
    Where did this ugly poison in you come from
    What danger could you feel your in
    To have left me to the sand
    What do you want from me?

    Wow! Just went through a break up that I didn't understand. This hit the nail on the head!

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
