PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

You think you know,

Well you have no idea

You see a clipping from

a page of my life

A twenty line poem

Explaining the hurt I have felt

but you have no idea

You see the pictures

That are created

From the camera

Inside my mind

You don’t know what it is like

To have lived my life

You’d never be able to survive

If you walked in my shoes

You may think I am weak,

Because believe me I have felt it before

But I am stronger than you expect

Because I am standing here alive

Through all that I have been subjected to

I don’t let you see the whole truth

I only open up when I feel comfortable

and that is rare

So when you say you know what I am going through,

You are so wrong

You don’t know me at all,

You don’t have a clue
