Why Do We? Poem by Jasmine Wayne

Why do I cry when I think of you
Why do I hurt when you are not near
Why do I feel all of your pain
Why do I stare trying to see you
Why do I talk even though you do no hear
Why do I want only a life with you
Why do I breathe when you are my air
Why do you love such a sad desperate soul
Why do you see that which I can't
Why do you still want when I didn't listen
Why do you care when I make you sad
Why do you hope when I only cry
Why do you wish when you deserve more
Why do you want a life burdened with me
Why do still I live when you are gone...
