No One Fully Understands Me Poem by Shalom Freedman

No One Fully Understands Me



Not even one person in the world
Not even those who care about me
Fully understand me
Understand the problems questions complications doubts troubles
I live with-

But why should they?
And would it really help
If they did?

For there are great problems and questions
I do not believe
Any human
Knows the answer to
And problems
Perhaps no one ever will

Full understanding
Would not bring me
Total peace of mind
Would not save me
From my questions and doubts and troubles-
These are part of me
And will go with me to the grave

I too it seems
do not fully understand myself
And never will.
