Not Knowing
When I don't know...
 I get scared
 I almost always know
 But with you, I don't 
 You make me feel;
  confused
 Lost.
 Useless...
 Like a pen without paper,
 A boat without water,
 Like a simile without a comparison
 Like how I feel, without you.
 
 You make no sense
 You Insult me, say I am wrong
 You leave me in the dark
 You lament a tragic song
 
 You mentally torment
 And emotionally torture...
 This you do not know
 There's a difference in the things
 That neither of us know
 
 When I don't know, it's not my fault, 
 When I don't know, it is scary
 When You do not know, it is my fault
 When You do not know, it is ignorance
 
 Learn to Handle Yourself
 Please...
 See reason with your inability
 Your lack of confrontational capability
 Your inability to handle social situations
 Maybe it's time you turn on the light
 Talk, and tell me,
 I am genuinely curious
 What's your justification?
 For leaving me in a dark alley?
 An alley with my only friends being a cat,
 And a homeless man...
 Both of which have a vastly better understanding
 Understanding of their role in your life
 Obsolete, Nonexistent, Irrelevant
 Is this where I should be too?
 Is this what you want?
 Or are you really just that ignorant
 Maybe you need to talk
 Educate yourself—and stop.
 Stop tearing me down
 You not noticing me,
 Is the most crucifying form of emotional torture.
