Respect

Respect is understanding
Always demanding

But respect is black
Hard to see, since so many lack

The ability to care
Love is unfair

But I do
I respect you

Not hating
Your choice on dating

You know you best
Better than the rest

Respect is masked
Always coming in last

So always look hard
When you can’t be scarred

Deep down in
In your heart not thin

For someone who cares
For I know not dare

Share the name
To not cause you pain

So ill stay
Ever so silent, if I may

To just wait for you to see
That I show the effect
On you, I respect
