I’ll Never Understand…

I’m not a man, so I can never understand what it means to feel the weight of the world on your shoulders. Or to feel yourself being crushed underneath the pain and the pressure of it all, never being able to admit it to anyone.

I’m not a man, so I will never be able to understand what it feels like to look around and see everything that you have fought so hard to build, get destroyed… Again. At least, that’s the way it feels. So, you continue to fight. Never realizing that all your efforts for are working against –

I’m not a man, so I will never be able to understand, for all the ways you try to hold on, you can’t see the pain you are inflicting as you push everyone away.

Thankfully, I’ll never be a man. This time, as I watch you make the same mistakes, I’m on the outside looking in. I pray for the man that you are and the man that I know you are capable of being.

I don’t know how any of it feels, being a man. I’ll never understand. One thing I think I know, is that you don’t have to face it alone. God will take all of your cares, all of your burdens, so you don’t have to endure it all on your own. You don’t have to lean to your own understandings – it’s not about what you know.
