If I Only Knew Why

If I only knew why Fog covers, our future that's to come
Irrecoverable, are the years that have been lost
Optimistically I wish, for things to get better Non-respondent is what you are, when asked what is the problem Lifelessness is the state, our love dwells in Yourself is all you care about
Kindhearted, were my intentions and expectations Negativity drowning our souls Emotionally tattered and torn Willingness, from you to show love has departed
Worthless, is the way you make me feel Heartbreak, is what you have caused You chose hatred over happiness, and I don't know why

Every word of your poem is so true. Acrostic does suit your style like John has said.

Well done Jeremy, looks like Acrostic suits your style, no syllable counts per line!

This acrostic (that is what it is), is absolutely wonderful. You did a great job. Your life must be difficult, for reasons I do not understand, but keep on writing, that helps.

Thank you, I did not know that this was acrostic. Today was my first go at it. I'm glad you liked it!
