Why do you not understand the pain I go through everyday?

Why do you not understand the struggle I go through to live my life like a normal person?

Why do you not understand that I am doing the best I can with what I have?

Why do you not understand I'm trying to love you with all my heart?

Why do you not understand I am giving all I can?

Why do you not understand I am done trying?

Myabe some things are better left misunderstood.
