~ Why ~


In the mornings I lie there,
I close my eyes,
A single tear escapes,
I quickly brush it aside,
I remember the pain of last night,
I don't want to feel it again.

I jump up and go through my day,
Wondering sometimes,
Why must it be this way?
With you there and I here!
My days are lived in constant fear.

I fear so many things,
I fear that you will be hurt,
and I wont be there to kiss away the pain,
I fear that you will be upset,
and I wont be there to hug you and put your fears away,
I fear that another will be there to replace me,
Its happened so many times to me.

But most of all I fear the night,
When it starts to get dark out,
I know the time is coming,
When I have to lie down,
Without you!

I think of all that happened,
And wonder why must it be this way?
I think you have doubts,
About you and I,
I honestly don't know why! Don't be afraid ,
I love you so very much!
