Why
These questions I wonder
Can they be answered
I lie awake at night
I sleep all day
Why?
I feel so different
I feel so alone
Everyone talks, Noone listens
Why?
Should I be the only listener
There's thoughts in my head
Put me in my permanent bed
Why?
I'm sick, sick of the world
This world makes me sick
Why?

Cry to me
Lie to me
Confess to me
Repress to me
Tell me everything you want to be,
And what to not

Just keep crying to me please
I will sooth you
Tell me the lies please
I will keep them close
Confess your love for me
For I will take it all
Repress your wrongs
So I can make it right

Show me the pain
Don’t worry I won’t gain
Anything you’re saying
Because you are me

Is that a shadow or reflection
Do you know me
I'm someone to be trusted
I don't trust in return
I'm the kind to write a poem when we met
One I'd surely regret
See the morning would come
And you may never see how I feel
I'm not one to open up
It's got thick there's this wall
Things aren't how I planned
Ashamed comes to my mind
I feel anxious sometimes
Jealousy is within me
Along with fear that's not kind
I want trust with no lies
You deserve it no lie
Short term happiness aside
Remove all fear inside
You must know more about me
It's you tearing down this wall
The mask I thought was helpful
Wasn't helping, Not at all
Feeling regret, but in a idyllic mood.

— The End —
