You Don’t Understand Poem by James Callos Jordan

I explain things in my mind,
You process differently
And takes it critically.

I attempt to reason out,
You butt in your reason
And change the situation.

Then I try to clear it up,
You nag, brag and never stop
Making all bad even worse.

There is a constant question
That keeps popping in my mind,
“Oh why can’t you understand? ”

What I’m doing is for us,
To be normal and happy
With all the pain gone, vanished.

I guess I’ll keep quiet
And keep these things to myself,
Maybe that could really help.

But oh I pray that someday,
Somewhere, sometime in this world
You’ll able to understand.
