Why Not?

Why not? I ask myself,

As I'm giving up.

Why can't I push through,

This dark and dreaded time?

Why not? I ask myself,

As I'm arguing with a loved one.

How come we all just can't

get along with one another.

Why not? I ask myself,

As I'm doubting my own thoughts.

I can do what I want,

No one can stop me.

Why not? I ask myself.

Why can't I save the world.

N/A I know I haven't written a poem in a while so here's one.  It's not great, but I hope it will inspire at least one person when they read this!
