Constance La France Poet Lyric

Why, Why and Why

I am so lost my love
Weeping again and again
I dream you could come back to me
'Cause I am sinking without you

It is not my time to fly up
I have living to do
We had a whole life planned
Now, oh I am missing you
Every single moment

Why, why and why
Did this have to be
Why, why and why
Sad, sad my soul

I am adrift my love
A ship drifting without you
We only had a few years
Beautiful and so lovely
So lovely

Why, why and why
Did God take you
Why, why and why
Did this have to be

We had things to do
Strolling on paths hand in hand
In forests lush and green
Watching sunsets at the beach

Let me say it once more, why
Forever I will wonder
Why, why and why
We should be growing old together

Rob Carmack June 11, 2016 at 2:05 PM Some losses you just can't completely recover from. The deeper it is, the more forever it becomes.

Duke Beaufort May 11, 2016 at 4:29 PM Does the pain ever end? I don't believe it does. There are triggers everywhere. These are signs of our past which we can never completely escape from. What a beautiful poet you are to deal with this subject in this way. May a beautiful wind blow in your direction and bring you the love from the forces of nature.

Robert Lindley May 10, 2016 at 7:34 AM MY FRIEND, THIS IS A TRUE PLEASURE TO READ THIS FINE MORN. MY FAVORITE STANZA- "We had things to do Strolling on paths hand in hand In forests lush and green Watching sunsets at the beach" I REMEMBER THOSE TIMES IN MY YEARS AS A YOUNG MAN... SUPER 7 FOR THIS GEM..

Ovidiu Bocsa May 9, 2016 at 10:31 AM A wonderful poem with amassing rhymes and rhythm of a gifted author.It seems like a dream waking up in another dream of serenity, hope and meditation on the multiple sense of why beginning with cause and aim and. Wonderful touching conclusion that may be continued in other dream as a new life together. I saw a movie Somewhere, sometimes...about such a new meeting.
