I Know Not Why
I know not why
you have chosen this path of goodbye.
For it is not what I would have chosen for us.
For I had faith in you.
and faith in Us.
For I believed we could go far
that we could change the world together.
I believed the possibilities of what we could achieve
were endless.
But now
we can achieve nothing together.
Because that is the path you have chosen
And I know not why.
I know not why
you didn’t believe in us
and I know not why
you didn’t believe in me
and why you stopped loving me
when I kept loving you.
For I know not why
you believed it was impossible
to work through our differences
and how you didn’t want to try
why…
you gave up so quickly.
why…
you gave up on us
and you gave up on me.
For I know not why
what I have done
to make you choose such a path.
For I may never know why.
