Why Fate Why

Came upon my doorstep Once upon a winter's night A man with a heavy footstep In need of a new day's sight! Pity overcame me and I gave him my heart And he made of me his own sweetheart Yet I knew not when I was all torn And held of life as an object of mourn Long ago that was, Today, breathing are my scars Even I let go of all those wars I cannot dream again of those stars Blurred was my whole life Once a lover, now seeing only strife I can only ask Fate, You who watch my gait, You who gave me such a sorry state Why, Why? Could you not wait? Could you not let me be Happy in this reality? All I ever wanted was to help All I ever did was to whelp Like a wounded animal Like a disillusioned girl in need of her pal!
