Why do you love him?
Why
Others always asked her
Why
Why do you care for him
As much as you do
Her cheerful chirping would stop
she readied herself with the response
because he’s a great mystery
he never says what he thinks
it makes me wonder why
he’ll confess to you his greatest secrets
but only as you turn your head, ears pointed away
He’s kind to me, yet he does his best
To make it seem like that isn’t so
Kindness can bound a person to another
Weaken their hearts
So he’d never believe himself to be kind
He loves me
enough to know that him being kind would only hinder me
he’s going away, thinking I don’t know any of this
I do not know where he plans to go
Yet he loves me enough to not bind himself to me
He’s a mystery
As no other man
Has ever acted this way with me
So I care for him
Because he cares for me
So much
