Why do I still care?
Why do I still think of you,
And wish our love to share?

Why do I still dream of days
That memories render sweet?
Why do I still bless the night,
By chance that we did meet?

Why does every breath I take
Inhale the scent of you?
And why is every thought of mine,
Your picture coming through?

Why do I still call you,
By chance to hear your voice?
And hope you will not hang up,
And forgiveness be your choice?

Why do I still care for you
While you shun me all the time?
Well Darling, when I stop caring,
That’s the day that I shall die.

Very nice, satisfying poem. I've been asking myself the same questions and it does feel it will go on forevermore. Thanks for sharing.

Hello Robert,
It's hard to forget about the ones you loved... Even tho we're not even friends, I still think about my ex-girlfriend and I'm always going to remember the great times we had and the not so great! Nevertheless, great poem! And thanks for sharing

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
