Best Understand Poems

There are things I don't understand
And would really like to know
Such as why they call it rush hour
And you move so freakin' slow

How come you get a learner's permit 
To get a license to drive a car
But they don't give one for a marriage license
Now...

We talked at length
The hours we passed
The life you lived
Oh the horrors 
So many men's live snuffed
Oh Arizona, a dedication
Whose souls be at rest
Amidst oily scum
And so many others
Sightless eyes watch
The world in disintegration.
Yes, you’ve seen
Many unimaginable horrors
Those only Man can inflict
You’ve grasped my heart
I...

And I know you didn't plan it
it's so hard for us to understand it
I love you, I hate you - I just don't understand it
One moment we're feeling bliss- like we're on another planet
you love me, you hate me...the story goes...we took our love for...

as i began to understand Virginia Woolf
her voice from a room of her own
i realized i was upon a mountain
she had exposed the molehill it was
the dirt soon revealed a tunnel
entering it opened a new horizon
where i finally fully grasped the world
surrounding Jane Austen
in that...

I understand,
Each time you held our little hands,
How lucky we were and yet,
Such moments that glow midst the hearts swirling core,
Are the easiest to forget.

I understand,
When you wrapped us in blankets,so tight.
Rocking us patiently, deep in the night,
Knowing that someday you wouldn't be there,
The sad,...

On Reading a Poem That I Don’t Understand

By Elton Camp

Those lines that an author has penned
I would like very much to commend
I read it carefully twice more,
But remain confused as before

The words chosen are those I’ve seen
But the sentences, what do they mean?
Maybe the poem...

Please just tell me that you’re sorry and all will be forgiven.
All these things in my past just hold me back from living.
You showed me all the things I shouldn’t be.
You showed me all the things I shouldn’t see.
Is forgiving you really that selfish of...

What do you want out of Life?

The question seemed simple enough.
But not only had I never thought about it,
I didn’t understand it.
I really didn’t.

We’d always been poor and
taught to never ask for anything.
Why raise expectations
only to be disappointed?

How do you ask for anything?
Then what? Actually...

Once the First Nation people owned the land,
from one coast of Canada to the next coast;
the mighty warrior is now just a ghost.

The people rounded up no matter what band,
put in Indian reservations to be controlled;
with unspeakable restrictions still untold.

Even in 2019, the housing is...

I Don't Understand ?

why do some people get away with things and others don't
 people are people so why should it be you and I appear awfully

 no one questions anymore no one has a voice
 it's the blind leading the blind soon will fall...

Nobody don't understand me anymore
because i am not the same person
i use to be because i am somebody
in Christ Jesus.

Nobody don't understand me anymore
because they don't know what i
went through during my trials
and tribulation.

Nobody don't understand me anymore
because i have been wash in the blood
of...

It’s cute when a young child keeps asking why.
Without an answer they think they will die.
Some don’t ask questions because they are shy.
Some others give up because they fear of a lie.

I’ve come to believe, why isn’t a need. 
It’s blown out of proportion yes...

Pappou, means grandfather in Greek,
He would listen carefully then speak,
Cleanse yourself first and heal,
Any rifts or wounds that gnaw.
Chose wisdom over wrath he’d say
Your time to fail, he would explain,
Will be entirely of your own choosing.
So open your minds and listen,
Understand your words, 
And keep...
