You won’t ever know The sore cap Of my knee You won’t ever know The dryness Of my lips I don’t need Your pity or Your guilt or Your sense of Accomplishment At being a nice Gentle and kind Boy-thing (I’d rather hear you say I bore you Than speak To a dead ear I’d rather hear you say You hate me Than love A silent thing) You won’t ever know How I exist and How near You won’t ever know But I’m sure That’s fine with you My dear

Words matter
You won’t ever know The sore cap Of my knee You won’t ever know The dryness Of my lips I don’t need Your pity or Your guilt or Your sense of Accomplishment At being a nice Gentle and kind Boy-thing (I’d rather hear you say I bore you Than speak To a dead ear I’d rather hear you say You hate me Than love A silent thing) You won’t ever know How I exist and How near You won’t ever know But I’m sure That’s fine with you My dear
