Why?

Why can`t you talk to me like a Human being?
Why are you unreachable, unwilling to hear?
Why are you selfish and uncontrollably cruel?
Why do you think you can do as you wish?
Why do you think I am your maid?
Why is it you hear nothing I say?
Why is it I am never right, but you are never wrong?
Why is it, I am good enough to clean all your messes?
Why is it, I am not good enough for a hug, or a Thanks Mom?
Why are you such a Teenager?
Why do I Love you so much?

Why is the question no one has ever answered finally. I guess if any of knows, we are unable to tell ... and love too comes with the mistery you juxtaposed in the poem so well. Peace and love
