Hopefully You Don't Understand.

Hopefully you don't understand, because if you do, I know you have lived the same pain.
Living the same pain has never been what I have wished on others.
But I have wished for more empathy and less judgement.
I have wished for understanding.
I have wished that our heartache would end.
I have wished that our hope would not be broken by unkind words.
I have wished for the accusations that we could do something better, to be taken back.
I have taken a harsh look at our life and wondered if we are doing all we can?
I judge us.
I question.
I hurt.
I hope.
I live.
I love.
Hopefully you don't understand the pain I know.
Hopefully, you never will.
