"We understand" they all claimed

"But do you?,
Do you understand
Tears rolling down your cheeks
At 3 A.M?
Do you understand
Permanent sadness?
Do you understand
The hollow for feeling
You get when you know
You'll always be alone?
Do you really Think
You understand!?"
I

screamed at them

All they could manage
Was a small gulp
As they tore their eyes away
And told themselves
That they understood.
