Understanding 1

You understand
What you choose
To understand!!
And what you choose;
You push hard to make me understand

Understanding is to let you speak
Understanding is
To listen to me
And not fabricate a story
The story is what you understood
It is not at all
What it was said.

Understanding is a spirit!
Understanding is a bird;
The bird can’t fly
When it is caged
In a few closed words
Understanding is
The way we exist

And the way we exist;
Is to try to understand
