Why

Why do I want you when I know I cannot have you
Why do I miss you when I have never touched you
Why do I love you when I know your heart belongs to another.
Why do I dream of you when I know upon waking my heart will break apart.
Why do I leave my heart open, only to be crushed yet again.

Torture,
When will  it end?
