why?

why do we hurt

the ones we love,

why do we lie

to the ones that tell us

the truth,

why do we underestimate

the ones who help us

get to where we are,

why?

why do they still help us

through the pain,

why do they still

tell us the truth

even when it hurts to hear,

why do they still

boost us up

instead of tearing us down,

why?

I thought I would try kinda what E. E. Cummings did. For those of you that don't know what he does, he rarely uses any punctuation or capitalization. I think a lot of poets are big on capitalizing and punctuating every little thing, so I thought, why not try something different? So let me know what you think. I might do some more in this style and I might do some in my usual style, I don't really know.
