I Just Don't Understand

I’m not what you think I am

I am stronger that you think

I do the best I can

I am not weak



But I can’t take it everyday

The constant annoyance

Of you

Always hassling me



Why must you put me down

Must you always see me frown

Why can’t you see

That you are hurting me



Sometimes I wonder

If the life I live is right

All these being thrown at me

I then find solace at night



I don’t think I can take it anymore

Funny what people do

Can go straight to the core

They don’t realize it

After all is said and done

Some of us are still alone

And look for guidance in the

Stars and the sun



Now adays it’s like everyone

Is under a confidentiality agreement

Nothing is ever said

It’s just one big secret



Even to myself I do this

It’s my personal business

Though would it hurt

To ask if I was ok

Is it hard to show compassion



Though I must say

I don’t have remorse

What happens shall happen

Because I choose it too

Life is taking it’s course



As I contemplate

These feelings going around inside

They’re too complicated

So many wrinkles

Will I ever find a straight line
