I wish i knew

How long does it take to know a person
Well enough
To know when she loves you
The way you are and expect nothing in return?

How long should you be with her to know that
she’s is quiet when she’s happy
she’s restless when disturbed
she’s sad most of the time but doesn’t show it
the world has problems enough on its own.

Did you know that most people hate her for her insensitiveness
But holds her tongue so as not to hurt your feelings?
Whenever did she make you feel inadequate?
Although the fingers on her hands are not enough to count
The things that she hates about you and the things that she wishes you were more of.

She’s not perfect, that she is most aware of.
Many a things she is not
Sweet
Gentle
Meek
Friendly
Patient
Traits you might want her more to be…but is not.

But are the words loyal, sincere, ally, friend, confidant mean anything to you?
