it's funny when people say
they wanted to be understood
but then they go
build themselves a huge barrier
leaving blanks of questions asked
with only silent when are told to share
they expected themselves to be understood
even when nothing is given

what tears you apart is that
it never crossed their mind to try
to understand you
for what matter is that they are understood
rather than understanding you
they make assumptions, conclusions of their own
saying there are no more side to you
for what they see is all there is

reality of it hurts
so you are never to put up too high of expectations
as they would always come up less
for the fact is
they are selfish and self- centered
as the truth is that

you never really matter to them
and the reality is that

you are just another person
