The So Called Family

Do not say you know
As you do not know
How painful the tears were
How unbearable the feeling was
Let me be

Do not say you know
As you do not know
What my life experiences are
What my dreams are
Let me be

Do not say you know
As you do not know
How the disappointments encountered made me feel
How the cruelty contributed to my well being
Let me be

Do not say you know
As you do not know
What began
What ended
Let me be
