Do not speak
of what you don't know.
Keep your mouth shut,
and tongue under control.
The things you know
are dull and bland.
Don't try to learn,
you can't understand.
The depths of the mind
are hard to reach.
The defenses of mine
cannot be breached.
You speak to me,
as if you're smart.
You understand nothing
of the heart.
Do not pretend
to know me.
Do not act,
if you cannot be.

Very nice job. Perhaps add some grammer though? Anyway, this was emotional and straightforward. It also hit very close to home. But like I said before mayve work with the grammer and it could make it that much better. Thank you for your passion.
