Tell me why - March 13th 2009

Tell me why
I don't understand
why relationships have to be so difficult
why friends are there for you one day and gone the next day
why do all good things come to an end

Tell me why
I don’t understand
We used to be so close but now we’re drifting apart
When did our friendship depart and this cold shoulder of yours impart
We don’t even talk anymore, am I that boring?
Or are you just very uncaring

Tell me why
I don’t understand
You can toss away years of friendship for another one that was for a semi year
Although this seems mere and unclear
I can hear the relationship crying, dying, sighing as it runs out of fuel

Tell me why
I don’t understand
Why should I try to amend our friendship
Our friendships a size too small for me to wear, its ripping and you’re just letting it rip

Tell me why
I don’t understand
I thought I was more than a mere item that can be replaced
My feelings are too hurt, my spirits gone; I give up, because it’s all a waste
I’m tired of chasing you around like a hungry dog, now I want to be chased

Most of all tell me why
Because I just don’t understand
why I pour out my soul to another person who will never do the same to me
why the people I believe in most are the ones who betray me
why luck was never my friend

All I really understand is
Why I have my family, always there to lead a helping hand when my friends are too busy and have walked away
why when one person disappoints you, another person surprises you
why good friends are hard to find
