Why, Oh Why?

How does one write what's in their heart of hearts?
How can one change the past?
How can we prevent what demons lie ahead?
How can we stop loving?

How can I breathe without a reason?
Why should I see if it only hurts?
Why do I remember more and more as time goes on?
Why, oh why, can't I forget?

Why, when I try to walk away, do you draw me back?
Why, when I look into your eyes, can I not look away?
What did I do to deserve this?
How can I escape?

Why am I still here, alone?
Why can't I find what I'm looking for?
Why can't my heart stop breaking?
Why, oh why, can't I unlove?
