You don't know
How my eyes light up with the reflections of lightning
And I feel like part of the storm
And I feel powerful in the wind
And the black clouds make me feel safe and welcome and one with the earth
And it makes me feel better
You don't know
All of my ins and outs like you thought
You don't really know the signs of my sadness
Like when I talk too much
Or I seem too happy
Or when I avoid talking to you for hours when I'm feeling good I can't go three minutes without conversation with you
You don't know anything really
Except for what you think you know
What you've spent so long believing to be the truth
You don't know that when you tell me it's okay to cry
Let it out
But I'm already dried up
And I cant
You don't know
That when I tell you I have no reason to be sad
Or angry
Or anything
I don't.
I don't know why I feel like that
I don't know how to fix it
Because there was nothing that happened
That made me feel that way
In the moment
It's just waves of the unwarranted emotion
You don't know
That there's nothing I can do
When I worry to much
About everything
About things that are so ridiculous
You don't know
A lot of things
That you thought you knew
About me...
