    Don't Know

    started this quest because something had been said
    I thought for a minute and it played with my head.
    I heard you knew me so could that really be true
    I don't even know myself, so how the hell do you?
    I'm not easy at all, I shift when it's my turn
    You'll figure that out, you live and you learn.
    Don't say out of context you think you know me
    I wanna see proof, I want you to show me.
    You think you know me but you really know of me
    You don't know how I feel, you don't know who love me.
    You would like to know and you may even try
    Maybe you know enough just to get by.
    Maybe you say you know me to get some attention
    Maybe you say you know me `cuz you heard someone mention.
    I know what to say, you do not know my frame
    The only thing you're stuck with.........is just knowing my name.

    Edward Orlando Griffin

    Brutha this peice is tight, I like it and look forward to reading more.

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

    Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
