QUESTIONS

why can't I,
why can't I put away the past
instead of suffering, no matter how long it lasts

why don't I
why don't I leave behind the hurt
instead of rolling around in its dirt

why must I
why must I go on this way
instead of leaving behind all the sad dismay

why do I
why do I go on with life
instead of daily dealing with its strife

why should I
why should I pretend it will soon end
instead of waiting for circumstances to mend

why am I
why am I living like this
instead of knowing what is total bliss

why won't I
why won't I learn from my mistakes
instead of accepting that life, gives and takes
