Array ( [sid] => 78530 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Why? [time] => 2005-01-05 01:34:51 [hometext] => A simple question which such deep answers. [bodytext] => Why when I searched the bottom of the bottle all that I found was more pain?
Why when I drank it down anyway I drove myself insane?

Why does she drive me crazy, so crazy inside my head?
Why can't I drown her away; I just want to be dead.

Why do I have to love so deeply and so completely, tell me why?
Why can't I be the man that I am and not just sit here and cry?

Why can't I accept she never wanted me and never will again?
Why is it so painful to believe I will never win?

Why is he better than me that she just cannot forget?
Why can't her past be the past and she let it be that?

Why when I build on a future she tears it all down?
Why is "I love you" fuel to burn it to the ground?

Why do I bother asking why when I should be asking her this?
Why? I'll tell you why, I need the answers now, that is what I wish

So tell me... Why? [comments] => 7 [counter] => 297 [topic] => 22 [informant] => lostinlimbo [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LostLove )

your pain shows clearly throughout this write. There are some that dont love deeply thats the hard part. Dont beat yourself up for being the one that loves deeply and true yes those of us who do love that deep get hurt deep but its better to love than be a mean ol tird, right?? We all ask ourselves why at times I relate to that

The answers are never easy, and hardly ever what we want to hear, but in the end we will have them. You are such an amazing person... I am sure of that one thing. Don't give up hope. I know that I've had trouble dealing with my thoughts even though I know somewhere inside that the one I thought was perfect isn't perfect for me. You will get through.

p.s. I think tears are beautiful.
