If only you knew...

If only you knew
How to know a person
From their eyes
Not their lips
 
From their thoughts
Not their words
From their heart
Not their mind
 
You'd know that you know a person
You'd know that you know them well
 
If only you misread the lies
And read the unsaid truth that lay beneath
If only meaningless exchange was read 
just as what it was..chitter-chatter
 
You'd know that you know a person
You'd know that you know them well
 
If only you knew the difference
between chat and connect
You'd know I merely chatted elsewhere
but always only connected with you
 
If only you wanted to know
Who I really am, what I really am
You would have tread with me 
the long journey and greyed with me
You'd spectate my strides
You'd think my thoughts
And only then would you take to 
the grave task of judging me
 
You'd know that you know me
You'd know that you know me well
