Sometimes I Wonder Why Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Silent my nights.
And,
Often...
Too remote.
And too often...
I'm reminded,
I chose.

Silent my nights.
And,
Often...
Too remote.
And too often...
I'm reminded,
I chose.

Sometimes I wonder why,
I chose...
To live a single life.
And be alone.

Sometimes I wonder why,
I chose...
A life of squeezing pillows,
With no one else to hold me...
Close.

Silent my nights.
And,
Often...
Too remote.
And too often...
I'm reminded,
I chose.

Sometimes I wonder why,
I chose...
A life of squeezing pillows,
With no one else to hold me...
Close.

Sometimes I wonder why,
I chose...
To live a single life.
And be alone.

Sometimes I wonder why,
I chose...
To live a single life.

Silent my nights.
And,
Often...
Too remote.
And too often...
I'm reminded,
I chose.

Sometimes I wonder why.
Sometimes I wonder why.
Sometimes I wonder why.
