Lived long, misunderstood I search for understanding in excess To compensate, what has come so late To drive me out of my sadness I appreciate those who listen Those who seek to understand I worried being unrelatable Would distance me more from them Because how can you love Something you don't understand How can you accept Something less than human Sometimes I don't understand myself So I don't expect for you to try Though I wish for someone to decipher me Who knows me better than I
