To be understood

My heart aches
when my words are cut off
every time I try to explain.
I do not know why
I can't speak right,
nor dare to look at you
with my teary eyes.
My words are jumbled in my head
I don't know what to say first,
Is it the things I want to express?
Or ask for the opportunity to speak
even though I don't really need to ask in the first place?

I'm not trying to convince anyone
that I'm right
I don't want to win the fight.
I want to be heard,
I just wanna be understood.
