You Don't Know Me

I don't think you realize how much I truly hurt inside.  I cannot be like you.  I am not you.  Your criticism of me, in efforts to make me more like you, hurt.  I know you do and say what you feel is right.  But what's right for you isn't right for all.  I understand the value of what you say, but it's such a stretch for me to be the way you wish me to be.

It's as if you don't really know how much pain I feel inside.  So often I feel maybe it's better that I never existed.  I don't know how to play by the same set of rules as others.  Hopefully I'll find my way.  And hopefully I'll learn to be more understanding so I don't get hurt as easily.  You're doing what you think is best.  You're trying to help me.  But I am not you.  You don't truly know me.
