I'd rather not know

by Amanda Sloan   Jul 22, 2004


Living a life unknown to me
Wishing on stars and Contemplating of the years to be

Taking each step in your own shoes
Doing whatever you want to do

Missing me.. possibly but probably
Capturing a princess in one of your wild dreams

Days ongoing with sadness oh wait thats me, your days are filled with gladness

There are so many things unknown to me, places i cant see, words i cant hear, thoughts that aren't real.

I thought i wanted to know the life you were in, but now i cant even wish to be your friend.
The ghastly idea of what could be happening scares me more than the actuality.
So in this scenario I'd rather not know.
I'd rather not know where your headed towards now, how you look or if your heart is like mine, in doubt.
I'd rather not know what you've seen today or who's brought a smile to your face.
Because if on your face was happiness, i didn't cause it. If you held sadness, I'm not to blame. If your discouraged I didn't start it. If your excited I'm not there to share it. If your scared I'm not there to calm you. If your mind is running wild I'm not the one to stop it.

My words are not meant to show disgrace but merely keeping me from a troubled state.

I can remember all the emotions that fall into place with the sight of your face. And, all the moments i can think of where i was the one to bring a smile to your face.And now, none of these are apart of me so in all honesty, I'd rather not know.
And even yet, my mind still wants to know.
