Gaining freedom does not mean
I am free from the turmoil in my heart.
It is there, and it is fierce, and I have not stopped
Thinking for weeks at a time.
Ruined, embarrassed, and confused,
I fall into your arms.
Yet there is no understanding for you to
Understand.
If I could not explain it to him,
I cannot explain it to you.
I will give no answer, and tell no lie.
Every mouth will find my ear with
Answers, and answers, and answers.
But if I cannot understand it myself,
Neither can anyone else.
Let us sit in silence with heavy hearts,
And see what happens.
I am not blind to it, but I make myself that way.
And I am sorry.
Maybe it is an easy out, to say that I am drawn
To something I just do not
Understand.
