You Still Won'T Understand Poem by Mona Willis

You wouldn't understand.
Why i am the way i am.
You'd have to live in my shoes
You'd have to go by my rules.
And even then...you still won't understand

You wouldn't understand.
Why i want to run across the land
You'd have to run with me.
You'd have to see what i see.
And even still...you won't understand.

You Can't understand.
Why i have to follow this depressing plan
You'd have to follow it too
You'd have to do what i do
And even then...you still won't understand.

You won't understand.
Why i cry every night in my hands.
You'd have to cry with me
You'd have to feel what it's in me
And even with all of that....
You still
Won't Understand
