I Do Understand

Tell me what you guys think about this, I want to use it as my talent show try out piece I know it's difficult for you to look at me as a person you once knew My mind is not around and this is something that your fear but please listen to me my body is still here The thing we once shared I fear I forgot but I do remember a little and a lot I will not behave or act like I was this is a disease I have no control of I'm sorry for the burdens I put upon you you'll be crying and feeling feelings of blue I then see how I make you feel but I don't know why it's such a big deal I fuss I hurt, I feel all the pain of some of which I truly gain My life was a journey I disguise a life of love which many surprise I feel all your love and warmth in my heart I'm always with you far and apart don't worry my loving family I'll remember one day hopefully I'll be leaving soon enough for any on like you it's goanna be tough I don't want to say goodbye even though I'll carry through the next life thank for everything you've done the light that came and shun I'll love you all forever My time is up being with y'all was a pleasure.
