You don’t know me

You don’t know what I know

You don’t know me

You don’t know 

You can’t know

You can try


The same goes


I don’t know you

I don’t know what you know

I don’t know you

I don’t know

I should know

I have to know

I will know


You and I don’t know


They could know

They could know each other

They could know what they like

They could love each other

They could despise one another

They could agree

They could disagree


You and I should be lovers

You and I should be friends

You and I should be strangers

You and I should be enemies

You and I should make a story


If only you were more honest

If only I were more respectful

If only you and I knew


If only you and I

This was a warm up poem but I ended up really liking this. It has this limited description but the reader can interpret this however they want.
