Why??

Just answer one.

With fingers stretched out

Praying with such devout

There on bended knee

The heavens hear the plea.

A cry for resolution

For the current confusion

 

With tear stained cheeks

A voice slowly speaks

Pleading for someone to reply

To the question of why.

 

Why the constant torment

Of a pain always present?

 

Why the endless drain

Of a faith that is slain?

 

Why an eternal dark cloud

Of hoplessness allowed?

 

Why won't you respond

From the great beyond?

 

Bowed down

Face to the ground

Begging, pleading

Beseeching

For just one outcome

Why won't it come?

Hear the mournful sigh

Why?

Author's Note

Not really sure why I wrote this. Maybe just my inner voice needs to know why so many things happen to me, that happen in life.
