Why? A Poem of Questions

December 9, 2009
By Anonymous

Why do they act like that?
Why don’t they feel what I feel?
Think how I think?
See what I see?
Aren’t they human?
Why don’t they do what I do?
When I expect them to do it?
How I expect them to do it?
Is it so hard to understand me?
I shout. I scream. I stop. And, I cry.
I pray to the Heavens, “Oh God, Why?!”
Is it me?
Why don’t they answer my questions?

I wrote this after this guy didn't reply to my text message and I had a conversation with another one of my friends about unreliability, etc. So, i just started listing of questions, getting out my stress, and it seemed to flow.
