Why?

She asks why? Only wishing she knew the answer...

I wish I knew the answer
To why you had to go.

***

Why?
I ask...

Why did you do this to him
And not me?

Why did you have to end his life
And not mine?

Why did you make us say goodbye
For the last time

Why did he
Have to die?

I keep asking
Why?

***

I won't ever relive the day
I watched him die

Because...
It makes me cry

***

I'll never know why
He had to die

Author's Note

Idk... just brought back a time in my life.... It might not be my best but it comes from the heart.

Great job, Manda!!!! I LOVED THIS! Well, probably because a part of me just died inside. This was an awesome poem. Very short, sweet, and to the point :)

[Dutch Jr.]

Wow, very simple manner of writing, but the questions you posed show deep sentiment and I could read your feelings through the work. You know what they say, though, you never question the Big Man Upstairs when he makes his decision to bring one of us home...

wow. The stanzas weep. We can all understand how this felt.
