You Don'T Even Know Me Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

You don't even know me.
Although you have been given clues.
Although I show I'm living...
Open, honest,
'And' being true.

You don't even know me.
To think of me as easy to dismiss.
To think of as someone without feelings.
Empty, thoughtless and no purpose meant.
Oh No!
You don't even know me.
Or what's in my heart that's there.
You don't know how deep I care for you.

You don't even know me.
Although you have been given clues.
Although I have been proving that I'm living...
As open, honest 'and' for you to do.
Oh No!
You don't even know me.
Or what's in my heart only you feed.
Oh No!
You don't know how deep...
I care for you.

You don't even know me.
Or...
How affectionate I wish to get.
Or...
How sometimes my feelings for you get,
Whenever I think that you are upset.
I wish there was something you see that proves,
I am here and care for you.

You don't even know me.
Although you have been given hints and clues.
Although I have been proving that I'm living...
Open, honest 'and' to you being true.
Oh No!
You don't even know me.
Or...
How affected you can make my feelings get.
It's true,
If you really knew me...
We would never have a disconnect.
And If you really knew me,
You would not show me a disrespect.
