Just So You Understand...

By: Peaches Christman

Just so you understand, my pain is quite real.
Contrary to popular belief, I do hurt and feel.
Just so you understand, you have broken my heart,
You've let me down so often and it's tearing me apart.
Just so you understand, my love for you is quite strong.
If it was anything less, we would never get along.
Just so you understand, I feel so alone.
You shut me out of your life, and act cold as stone.
Just so you understand, how much you will lose.
The hurt that you've given me, leaves me nothing left to choose.
Just so you understand, I've always been a fighter.
When I believe in something so much, my strength shines brighter.
Just so you understand, no matter how hard you try.
I will always love you, that will never die.
Just so you understand, no matter what I do.
My love has no stipulations, it will always be true.
Just so you understand, to you I will never lie.
I will always be honest, until the day I die.
Just so you understand, I wanted to share my life with you.
Not just the good times, but the bad ones too.
Just so you understand, why I don't say how I feel.
When you do these hurtful things, and act like it's no big deal.
Just so you understand, why it kills me inside.
You don't show how you feel, can't get past your pride.
Just so you understand, I can see right thru.
If you love me so much, why hurt me like you do?
Just so you understand, you've taken my heart.
If you could tell me how you feel, it would be a great start.
Just so you understand, I would never do you wrong.
Give me something to believe in, and my love will grow strong.
Just so you understand, I wrote this for you.
But no matter how hard I try, you won't let me break thru.
