Lately I have come to understand,

That one of the most frustrating things,

Is that I will never be able to make you see,

The world In which I am found.

 

I can not open you to what I believe

for You can not feel the wind that blows around me

And you can not hear the calls of the lost souls 

Your voices tell you a different Truth,

who am I to say they are wrong?

 

It hurts to know that we will never share

That momentary breath of peaceful knowing

But in truth it makes sense

As we were never quite the same

 

The lines in my face tell another story

Than the ones written all over yours

And though in the end our intentions will remain,

Always the same,

 

We will never remove the wall that separates us,

as our wills are both too Stubborn

to lose what we reason is Strength

But I bargain is more likely fear

 

I wanted so badly to show you the world that I see,

I wanted you to be the one that understood me,

I wanted you to taste the pleasure of community

Escape the entrapment of Isolation and conformity.

 

No, Don't worry.

I do understand.

You see my world as something far worse than yours,

and I see yours as much worse than mine

 

But I have looked beyond you and I,

 

We live in a Universe fighting the same war,

For every one of me,

There is one of you,

Creating an endless balance of uncertain certainty. 

 

When I look up at the stars

And I question them on their intentions

They tell me to just let go

And that all will fall into place

 

But the loss of all of you,

that I could not show

This beautiful place inside my mind,

Makes me ever more afraid

That maybe what I see is not really there

 

So I become overwrought with the idea

That if I do not change who I am

From the core 

Than I may be left behind

 

I feel though that there is some sort of being

Yelling at me from the inside

Telling me I must keep believing 

In what most do not 

 

Keep Using your words to try and express

All the emotions and thoughts that bundle up inside

There are people out there

Who understand, share and live in your mind set.

 

I now know,

that you will never agree

With how I think the world should be

 

Which means

I can keep moving forward faster

Leaving my love with you,

To follow if you chose.
