Why?....

Contributed by SweetButSimple on Tuesday, 22nd March 2005 @ 05:07:24 PM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry

Tell me why I love you,
Tell me why a flame
Burns in my face and in my heart
At the sound of your name,
Tell why, when you walk past me,
My feet don’t feel the floor,
Tell me why I’ve never Noticed you before.
Just tell me the reasons why
And maybe I’ll forgive
How you make me laugh and cry
By just the way you live.
Give me a reason to go on
And never give a sign,
For you have your friends and your life —
And I, too, have mine.
I know you have a right to fun
And a right to be free.
I know you have that other one
Who does not look like me.
I know I shall meet others
And think how young I’d been...
But why are you the only one
Of all the ones I’ve seen?
And I have to smile and deceive...
Give a reason for the lie
That I repeat and can’t believe,
And I do not know why.

DEEP. THAT WAS GOOD.

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time. Please report poetry and or comments that are in breach of our site rules HERE (Please include poem title or url). Parents also please ensure that you supervise your children well when they are on the internet; regardless of what a site says about being, or being considered, child-safe.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
