You Will Not Understand


5.4.14

In the hospital she stays 
Motionless for days 
You cannot touch her 
She will not feel the sting 
She is numb 
To Understand 
To Reprimand 
To Comprehend 
A prisoner stuck in the system 
She has made herself a victim 
To percieve, is to pretend 
I pretend to be the
person who I know you 
will percieve me as 
A senseless girl, quiet 
in nature, but loud 
When questioned upon 
You will not understand.
