I understand

People are busy
I understand
They have ‘their’ priorities
I understand
They don’t wanna talk to me
I understand
But they talk to me when they need me
I understand
They come up with excuses
I understand
They don’t have time to meet me
I understand
But they have ‘time’ to roam around
I understand
They underestimated me
I understand
They get angry
I understand
They misunderstood me
I understand

But…

This is NOT always my responsibility to understand.

    Great read.
    I very much liked the ending, ¨ They misunderstood me, I understand¨.

    Glad you clarified at the end that is not your responsibility to understand, since while reading the poem
    I was gettting nervous to hear so much understanding ;), as I said before great read, good theme, and also very well written.
