Why Me?
Why do I get all the hurt?
Why do I get only pain?
Why do I still live in hope
When it all seems in vain?
Why did I get abused?
Why did I get hit?
Why was I raped?
I just don’t understand it
Why am I always so frightened?
Why am I always so sad?
Why does everything I touch
Always turn so bad?
Why does nobody listen?
When I talk of my fears?
Why can no one see
My despair, pain and tears
I have beautiful sons
Who can never show me love
What have I done to annoy
God up above?
Why when I finally meet
Paul, the man of my dreams
Do people persecute and hurt us
And rip us apart at the seams?
I deserve to be loved
I deserve to live
I deserve some happiness
I have so much love to give
