Why does love hurt?
Why can't life be simple?
Why do I seem to have an inability to catch a break?
Its almost as if strife and pain are attracted to me
Like deadly silent moths to the bright shining flame that was my childhood self
Warping her
twisting her heart and mind into something dark and cruel
The light still shines through sometimes
From the small girl curled inside my mind
Hiding away from what I've become
So, pray do tell me
Why?
