I sit here today

by Nikki   Apr 25, 2007


I sit here today and ask my self-why
Why, did I put myself through so much pain?
When I knew in the end, nothing would end up the way I wanted them to,
I sit here today and ask myself why
Why, did I like you so much?
And how did that like turn into an obsession?
I sit here today and ask myself why
Why, did I hold to something for so long and hard,
And something that wasnt there,
And if it was there was all along,
Why did I try so hard so to not mess things up?
I sit here today and ask myself why
Why, did I care so much?
Why does loving someone have to hurt so much?
I sit here today and ask myself why
Why, did I assume things?
When in the end it just thing worse,
And I sit here right now and ask myself
What made me that way?
Why didnt I just give up?

    Wonderful poem. I like the repetativeness of it, it fits well with the message you are trying to convey. If you want, you could probably add on a little bit, there are still some questions I have about the poem.. But other than that it was great. 5/5 from me.

    I felt that there were a lot of questions in this poem. It really was missing something.

    Ah, the ever so classic"why?"
    everyone asks it, but no one ever gets the answer.
    i've found myself in that very same hole that you described, oh so many times.
    good luck with life.
