Why ?
Some questions never get answered...
You want to well for life.
You try, try, try, and for what? Why?

You can not force a piece that will not fit,
or try and find one that will fit.
This is not a substitute for happiness,
understand that for what is real.

You can not work yourself continuously trying to advance,
only to give it away, knowing there is no real chance.
You try, try, try, and for what? Why?

You think you are loved, and that you really are special.
Only to feel used and saddend when you find it is only superficial.
You try, try, try, and for what? Why?

Patience is a virtue, almost always learned to late.
For you keep doing the same things, not learning from your mistakes.

You are a good woman, who deserves well.
You do not deserve a life of misery, one that is destined to fail.

You pick yourself up and go on, for you know you must.
As this is only a temporary set back,
For your life will continue, and once again you will adjust.

Love yourself for you are worthy indeed.
Being a good mother and person, will bring you the true happiness this is all you will need.

For this is why, this is why i continue to try!
