How Can You Know Them Poem by rebekka bear

how could you know someone
when they dont even know themselves
how can you see what they are
when they dont even know

when they cant seem to find who has there heart
when they cant even think for themselves
when they just dont care anymore
how can you know someone
who has faced all there fears cried all there tears

someone who hides everything and when you look in their eyes
they look like they are always trying not to cry
when all they have left is the feeling of lost and abandonment the feeling of no return
when they cant even ask you whats wrong
when they absolutely know that something is wrong

how they cant seem to tell the complete truth
how they cant seem to make there words come out rite
when they make fun of others to help their own insecurity's
when all they can do is hit and abuse people and that's all

they want all they ever want to do is talk
never about themselves only about everyone else and
if the person you think you no is always searching for something
try to find out what it is try to ask

whats wrong and if they say nothing
then you shouldn't ask them again the next day
just leave them alone for a while let them collect their thoughts
let them just be them and then
only then can they find themselves and let you in
