Please Understand

Please just listen,
I have a lot of problems.
I'm really messed up.
I don't know how to solve them.

Please understand,
I try to be strong.
But everything closes in.
Everything seems so wrong.

Please just stop,
You can't help me,
You can't change things.
I don't need your pity.

Please just remember,
I don't really say anything,
I give pieces of a puzzle,
I always stay a mystery.

Please wait a second,
I know you're fustrated,
You tell me all your stories,
Thought they would be traded.

Please understand this,
It's me, not you.
I make myself alone.
There's nothing you can do.

Please don't forget,
That I'm still alive.
No matter how numb I seem,
I have a heart deep inside.

Please don't be mistaken,
I'll be your best friend,
But you'll never really know me,
Until the very end.
