**you Say That You Know Me…** Poem by Daniel Richards

You think you know me
Just because you know my name,
You think you’ve seen me
Just because you know my face

If this is the case
Then please can you tell me
The tale of each line and crease
Which traces my face?

You think you know me
Because you know my eyes are blue,
But, know this to be true, with
Each passing day the blue changes shade

I know you want me,
I can see the truth
I know you want me
Because I’ve wanted me too

But I won’t do what you want to
I’m not the same as you,
I’m not somebody for you
To just grip and hold onto

You tell me you know me
You tell me you understand,
So why am I in the wind?
Standing with the rain

I need someone to love me
But my heart won’t understand why
I’m in a throw to loose, when you
Open up and say your love is true

The night is fading quickly, just like you
Unless you can tell me something new,
You say that you know me
Then tell me some truths
