Why

Why do you do this,
Why do you twist my world upside down?
Why do you hurt me,
Why do you always knock me to the ground?
Why do I love you so much,
Why after all you put me through?
Why did you change,
What did I do to you?
What was the reason,
What was the means for us to be at this point in our life,
You not here,
And no longer my wife?
What made you make choices,
That led to a family ripped apart?
What made you hurt so many hearts?
Why?

Mmm...I feel it. I feel what you are feeling, except she was not my wife. Sometimes the worst part is never knowing exactly what went wrong...and then something is wrong with the person for never telling. Surely we could learn. Anyway...this was touching for me...and I hope things work out for you, friend. Time seems to do that.  - KMD
