Why

Can anybody tell me why I'm here,
Amidst so many people, yet alone?
Why can't I seem to shed a single tear
Nor even find in me that mournful groan?
Why can such hope be snatched from in my grasp
And why did I believe that this would be?
Why didn't such a thing release its clasp
So long ago, when truth was shown to me?
Can someone please explain to me the reason
Why I persist in playing at this game
Of imitating life? Is this the season
To start again or end? Is it the same?
I don't know why it had to go this way
But I need you if I'm to live another day.

The Situation

May 26, 2012 at 2:56 AM

i can tell you enjoy crying becaused crying touches something divine. don't worry i'm one to. but looking for the tears that were there. sometimes i write and they appear. of listen to that certian tone in the song that i know is God. either way. we live to find that thing between piece and tears. and we have to move on.
