WHY

WHY

A Poem by SJ Mullins

Why do many I care about just up and leave?

Am I as dreadful as I am led to believe?

I have countless issues just like others do.

When people walk out on me it makes me blue.

 

Why am I troubled when they show their colors true ?

Is it feasible, about them, that I should change my view?

I have had my heart broken so many times;

Should I have paid more attention to the signs?

 

Why do I feel like I have never fit in?

Many have no idea about where I have been.

If they knew perhaps might change their mind,

Or would they still stay away, and be unkind?

 

I tend to accept people for who they are

Those who truly love me call me a shining star,

I have learned not everyone is what they seem.

Why can’t we all be on the same team?

 

My self-esteem is shattered, it makes me feel down.

I wonder if the real me will ever be found.

All I need are friends who will stand by my side

Perhaps then, there will be a changing of the tide.

asking yourself why the people around are leaving
wondering why you never really fit in
I believe that some people, are meant to be seperate
and we shouldn't force the relationship between,
and spend more time finding your true soul mate

Could be. You just never know the reasons sometimes of why people do what they do. :P

In some cases, it's better not to understand, for the truth may be unacceptable

This is true.
Wonderfully written. The state of in which the character is can be clearly seen through these lines. Alone, depressed, sad with hope of a better tomorrow by finding real friends. I believe that the wrong ones were sent into our lives so that when we find the right ones, we would appreciate them.
