Why



Why
Why when I was already bleeding to death you had to come into my life to bring hope.
I didn’t need or want love. I was ok to die alone.
You made me believe in love again.
Why when you knew you’d destroy me.
Now I’m tossed aside again left to pick up the pieces alone. Why. What did I do to deserve no love.
Life has been too much and I can’t do it alone anymore. I died and came back all to wish that I hadn’t.  I wish I hadn’t.
