Questions Asked...Never Answered
I lay silently in bed
Rocking back and forth to the mellow crooning of a bird
I can’t sleep
Can’t keep you out of my mind
I remember how you left me
My heart is a gaping hole
Where you were
You took it from me, ripped it from my chest
And left me there to bleed and die
Why?
Was I not good enough for you?
Were you ashamed?
Please answer me
Why?
I’m so confused
I feel like I’m wandering through a never ending abyss
Where did it start? Where will it finish?
Who knows?
I don’t
I’m falling but why are you in my head?
Why can I not forget your face?
Why?
I ask questions
And I never know the answers
Why?
Do I really wanna know?
My mind is a blurry vision
With thoughts of what used to be us
Why?
Why would you take away something
That was yours already?
You stole candy from a baby
Helpless was I to do anything
What could I do?
But the question still remains
In my mind
Why?
Why can I not be your princess?
I still think of you as my Prince Charming
But it’s okay
I understand that the grass was greener
On the other side
Now the question is in my mind
Never to leave
I’m sure you know what it is
So I ask again
Why?
