Just Because . . . a compilation

Just because you can't see it
     doesn't mean it's not there
Just because you don't respond
     doesn't mean I didn't say it
Just because you don't want to do it
     doesn't mean it doesn't need done
Just because you can't feel it
     doesn't mean I'm not hurting
Just because you didn't say it
     doesn't mean it wasn't said
Just because you smile
     doesn't mean you're not grieving
Just because you're surrounded by people
     doesn't mean you're not lonely
Just because you listen
     doesn't mean you understand
Just because you share deeply with me
     doesn't mean you want me to talk
Just because it's not said
     doesn't mean it shouldn't be
Just because you don't love me
     doesn't mean I don't love you
Just because you think it
     doesn't mean you should say it
Just because you think you can't
     doesn't mean I know you can
Just because you love me
     doesn't mean I love you
Just because you won't
     doesn't mean I will
Just because you're sorry 
     doesn't mean I trust you
Just because you're in pain
     doesn't mean I don't care
Just because I'm quiet
     doesn't mean I'm sad
Just because I'm being silly
     doesn't mean I'm ok
 Just because I'm wounded
     doesn't mean you wound me                                      by Wen

Just because I know what's right
     doesn't mean I do what is right
Just because you're dreaming about it
     doesn't mean you can't obtain it                           by Fanybug

Just because you crave it now
     doesn't mean it will satisfy or benefit you
Just because you're broken
     doesn't mean you can't be fixed

Just because you have scars
     doesn't mean you won't heal                       by Fanybug & Wen

Just because you laugh
     doesn't mean I find it funny
Just because you cry
     doesn't mean you're sorry
Just because you speak
     doesn't mean I'm listening
Just because you say it
     doesn't mean it's right
Just because you look at me
     doesn't mean I'm not invisible to you
Just because you care
     doesn't mean I need you
Just because you pray
     doesn't mean you're sincere
Just because you kiss me
     doesn't mean I love you
Just because you like it
     doesn't mean it's good for you                          by Tami Flores

Just because you said it 
     doesn't mean it's true                                        by Martha Drake

Just because you made a promise 
     doesn't mean you'll keep it
Just because He's silent
     doesn't mean He's not there                             by April Hauser

Just because I need
     doesn't mean you're going to help             by Deneé Jones

Just because God speaks
     doesn't mean we listen
Just because I have heard the truth
     doesn't mean I will walk in it                        by Sharon Thomas

Many mornings just before I wake or after waking I get writing ideas. 'Just Because...a compilation' was no exception. I sent my scribbles out to some friends and their ideas are featured in this blog.
