Why
Why
Why do you do this to me?
It’s clear I'm always the one apologizing
When it’s not even my fault
But you’re the friend I've had for the longest

Why
Why do you do this to me?
You blocked me today.
What for?
Playing a game with some other friends
When you’re the one that will call other friends when I'm on call with you
Then I fade away
I'm not there anymore
You forget
About
Me.

Why
Why do you do this to me?
You’ve asked so many times if I take anything seriously
And it saddens me that you don't notice exactly how much I take seriously
Just because I like to laugh doesn’t mean I can't put away a smile
I would rather smile than sorrow
Why is that so wrong?

Why
Why do you do this to me?
I want to tell someone
No
I’m lying
I don’t want to
Because you’re the friend I've had the longest
We’re supposed to stay friends till college
Our kids will have play dates together
I’ve resorted to writing poems that are less than half-good
Just to relay my cry for help
Escape even
However at the end of the day
It’s still you
I still come back to you like a dog without a home looking for shelter
By dawn tomorrow, it’ll still be you
It will be
forever

Why
Why do you do this to me?
Why do I do this to myself?
