You Don't Understand

Your eyes are watching me again
You think I don't notice
I always let you think I don't notice
But I see everything

You never thought I understood
Ha
You were the one who didn't understand
The answer was, "I can't"

You were being obvious
So I rolled my eyes
And said no

You speak those words
You assume you know what I want
You have no idea what I want

The title
'I'm Sorry'
I made it for us
Ha
You don't even know what I'm talking about

Even this poem
You'll never know it was for you
You'll never understand

You'll never read it
Not the way it's meant to be read

I'll show it to you
And you'll look at me with those puzzled eyes

Because you don't know
You'll never know

And now I'm crying
But there's some humour in my tears
And in my mind I'm smiling wryly
Because you don't understand

I can pour out all my pain
And you'll just sit there helpless
Confused

Because you don't understand

A/N: I'm actually insanely proud of this one. It's a voicing of all the unspoken words, and it was written with a lot of emotion.
