Because...
Because I was mistreated
Because I was judged wrongly
Because I was wrongly accused
Because I was teased
Because I was given very little hope
Because I was never given the chance
Because I was not taught how to be the cause
Because I was steadfast when it came to change
Because I was not emotionally attached
Because I was disconnected from the world
Because I was not able to find the key
Because I was not allowed to be free
Because I was not open to friends
Because I was not involved with my family
Because I was able to see all of the conflict
Because I was able to avoid it
Because I was not able to come to terms with myself
Because I was not taught how to stand up for myself
Because I was caught up in satisfying everyone else
Because I was trying to counter the worst
Because I was repeating the same actions
Because I was hoping for a different result
Because I was too inexperience to predict
Because I was forced to learn on my own
Because I was not able to forecast a downcast on myself
Because I was trying to run away from others
Because I was afraid of fact
Because I was worrying about little things
Because I was not able to see the big picture
Because I was not prepared with a vision
Because I was not able to find peace and harmony
Because I am not able to forget and forgive.
