![]() Why me?...A Poem by Christopher Paul“Wait, please don’t”, he cried “Please, don’t do this”, he watched as his soul died “Why, why me?” he felt the tears in his eyes “Please, I can’t take it”, his heartbeat was amplified “Please, make it stop”, his reality and nightmare collide “I don’t want to live in pain”, his reasons were justified Why can’t someone just stand by my side? If this pain is all I get what can’t I suicide? Why am I forced to live because living is glorified? All I feel is hate and it’s a landslide I smile and laugh on the outside But I’m dead and hallow on the inside Yes, for other support and strength I provide But there is no one for me, no arms where I can hide Is it because I’m so kind? The purity of the soul does affect your mind It’s like you turn a bit blind You cannot trust what you feel, everything is intertwined You think with your heart and leave your guard behind And like this, you sign your name on the dotted line You once again give your heart and soul to the unkind This is your fate, your life, your crime To suffer by your own hands until the day you die © 2020 Christopher Paul |
