 Don't tell me that you understand, don't tell me that you know Don't tell me that I will survive, how I will surely grow. Don't tell me this is just a test, that I am truly blessed. That I am chosen for this task, apart from all the rest Don't come at me with answers that can only come from me, Don't tell me how my grief will pass that I will soon be free Don't stand in pious judgment of the bonds I must untie, Don't tell me how to suffer, don't tell me how to cry My life is filled with selfishness, my pain is all I see, But I need you, I need your love, unconditionally.  Accept me in my ups and downs, I need someone to share Just hold my hand and let me cry, and say, "My friend, I care."      |
