Don't tell me that you understand,
Don't tell me you know.
Don't tell me that I will survive,
How I will surely grow.
Don't tell me this is just a test,
That I am truly blessed.
That I am chosen for this task,
Apart from all the rest.
Don't come at me with answers,
That can only come from me.
Don't tell me how my grief will pass...
That I soon shall be free.
Don't stand in pious judgement
Of the bonds I must untie.
Don't tell me how to suffer
And Don't tell me how to cry.
My life is filled with selfishness,
My pain is all I see,
But I need you, and I need your love......
Unconditionally.
Accept me in my ups and downs,
I need someone to share,
Just hold my hand and let me cry,
And say "My friend, I care".
