Naïve

4/15/02





You’re too naïve to understand



You think the life we live is grand



‘Cause you don’t have to cry at night



And hide your tears under the light



And you’re a friend to dry these tears



But these are all my silent fears



So Quietly I waste away



Watching you live your every day



I’ve made this Hell surrounding me



Yet still you’re all that I can see



You’ve made it clear you don’t love me



Why won’t my heart just let it be?!

Miss Raup this is a poem that says a lot and most people don't have a clue as to what you are expressing here. One would say, NAIVE yet wise, young and untested, giving yet
unfulfilled; lonely but not really because someone loves you but there are too shy to let you know how they feel in
side for you and your kind of love. I am a sub-address to the main e-mail that I post from, please contact me and I
can contact you without going through the main page. my e-mail address is posted on this site. Thank you. N. London

thanks so much for your comment on my poem "yesterday", you always leave such encouraging words.
i really love this poem you wrote, it feels as if i couldve written it myself. it explains what ive felt but never quite been able to put into words.
