No Understanding, No lies

"I've been there before"

liar

"I feel your pain"

shut up

"I can understand you"

NO YOU CANNOT!!

You think you can understand me?
Do you even know me?
Have you seen the horrors I have?
Have you heard the screams I have?
They're in the breeze
They're in the rain
They're in my head

Once you look upon it
You cannot un-see
Do you really KNOW me?
No, you don't.

I hate it when someone says they understand
When their eyes are shallow pools of water
Not even a centimeter deep

I hate it when they say they can help
When their words are just sweet whispers
That change into deadly spears

I hate it when a person says they have been there
When they have not suffered as I have
And use some dumb story that couldn't even compare

You cannot know me
I have seen too many things
I am always alone
Are you trying to comfort me?
Its better to leave me alone
I hear misery everywhere, even in my steps
Can you ever imagine what I have been through?
I have been to hell and back and somehow I am still alive
So know your place. Never lie to me again. I know when someone does
