I never knew

I didn't know what to tell you
So I told you what you heard
Now everybody talks to you
And I don't say a word

I didn't know what to give you
So I gave you my life
Now everybody takes from you
And I still get the strife

I didn't know how to forgive you
So I just let you try
Now everybody has a friend in you
And I've found no ally

I didn't know what to show you
So I just showed you love
Now everybody holds you
And I watch them push and shove

I didn't know how to handle you
So I just let you go
Now everybody smiles for you
And I uphold my woe

I use to think I knew
What I was fighting for
And now everybody knows
I don't think that anymore

I totaly like the way you rhyme. its nice to find a fellow
rhymer. other than that trust me if i had names i would
kick a few asses. and that aside i found it effective how
you kept the same format throughout the peom.seems hoekey
but its late and i could find anything i didn't like.
(probably tells you something) (( other than those ass
wholes))
