You don’t get it

You don’t get it

And you never will

Because it was never your destiny

To see or know

Me

When you say the things you do

Its no wonder that a part of me

Freezes in its tracks

Feels its self

Obliterated

This is just what people like you do

You never knew

A tiny fraction of the pain

I struggled with

And all that you wanted to do

Was throw stones

From the house on the hill

You made of opaque glass

While I lay in the valley weeping

Almost crippled with

The strangled cry

Of ‘NOOOO’

But its all okay now

It truly is

Because you see

I get it

And I get me

So even if you continue

To try to confuse and lead me astray

I will in future

Just spin on my heel

Or turn a deaf ear

For in this life

There are so many more beautiful things to hear

Than the sound of your

Hollow voice

Ringing out its nonsense

In my ears
