Could You Try to Understand Me
The heart bleeds red they said.
Well mine pours secrets
In the forms of similes and mistakes.
But I take back nothing I have done.
Because I live to learn
What few have had the courage to do.
I speak truth in the forms of verbal abuse.
My words have weighed me down
Like sunken ships in the pacific.
But never again will I let them sit
In the pit of my belly.
They will astral project
Like the soul in my body.
Kiss these lips and tell me you could taste
What this man has been dreaming.
Because words can only describe so much.
How could you feel what I have been feeling?
Run in my shoes.
Look through my eyes.
Speak with my tongue.
And tell me, if you could hear
What my heart has been beating.
Because I spend most nights
Tossing and turning
Under mountains of thoughts
Wondering, if you actually
Understand me..

'Kiss these lips and tell me you could taste

this is great, especially that particular part. your writing speaks volumes with every line.
