You Tell Me

You tell me
something
you say it”s so
but
in reality
how do I know?

Your lips
they move
words come out
your finger
points at writing
someone else
has
composed.

I don’t know
from
where they came
I don’t know
if they’re right
or
written
just to complain.

Then I hear
someone call
their voice
wails
do they know?

I’m not sure
not at all.
