Why, Oh Why?
It started out as all things must
Almost out of nothing springs fairy dust
We seemed to be a perfect match
He likes to throw, I like to catch
He loves to laugh, I love to joke
Why, oh why is he such a bloke?

It began as light as any game
Why then is it turning out the same
We seemed such a perfect pair
He likes adventure, I like to dare
He loves to play, I love to sing
Why, oh why is it just a thing?

It happened almost overnight
Why have we begun to fight
We seemed such a perfect set
He likes to give, I like to get
He loves to chase, I love to flee
Why, oh why is it always me?

Beverly* Why.....a very good question, I wish I had the answer for you...if I did then we would both know    You expressed alot of feelings and I hope that in writing it you can begin to heal from the pain this must be causing.

Beverly,
What great poetry you write. And this expresses your genuine feelings, as I could feel them when I read it. I must come back for more.

Butterfies don't thank you, I'm getting there, as we all must if we are to move on.

Bill, thank you I appreciate the praise. I hope the feelings come through, but sometimes it seems as if I only scratch the surface! But this group is teaching me loads, so thanks everyone!

If we could only find the answer to that one question...I think life in itself would be so much easier.  Wonderful write my friend.

Mark thank you, the question I'm asking eternally now. Only those who no longer live know all the answers.

Sunny Why indeed? Maybe I'll know one day, or maybe I'll finally learn by experience.
