Would You

by Nicole M. - Gemini

Would you understand
You swear on anything
That you would
But me
I'm doubtful
You say you'd understand it all
But let me ask you this
Would you...

Would you understand it
If I shoved it in an analogy
Said I was the river
And it was the storm
Or the rock thrown into me
Your tears say that
But they're not the same tears
That I've cried.

Would you understand it
If I explained it in this poem
Hide it
In between these lines
Like a scavenger hunt
And you lose when you win
You'd get lost
Before you understud
Would you not?

Maybe I'll just leave it uncooked
Raw for you, lying on the table
No sugar no coating
No metaphors
How about this...
Or maybe it's just too much for you
Would you realize
That I have a reason for this
Would you understand
That there's just some things
You weren't meant to know about.
Would you?
