Why?
I don't know why
All I know is I have
I guess it would be understandable
If I just decided to leave
Understandable, but not approved of
With the seizing
And the stolen moments
Moments gone forever
They would understand
At least I think they would
Maybe they wouldn't
They haven't gone through it
Haven't felt the pain
All the pain I feel inside
They try to understand
But they never can
What would happen if I did it?
If I just ended it?
I would go Home
To the One awaiting me
Maybe that's part of the call
But for the ones here
I think they would miss me
Maybe that's why I've kept living
Something wrong with this poem?
