Why? A word often used in confusion and distress.
A word that can be used whenever dealing with a mess.
Why? We ask, why do these things that cause unhappiness?
They respond, because this is what I know best.
But is it really what is right? Sometimes you need to give it a rest.
But what do I know? Why would someone like me know why you did this, and that is why I ask.
Why would you do such a disheartening task?
Does it bring you joy?
Everything else can do that too.
Are you doing this for fun?
The little things can be fun too.
Have you ever felt remorse for you actions?
...
I see, your silence is most terrifying.
I don't know why you insist on defying.
The laws are there so no one is hurt.
Yet you insist to desert.
Why I ask and you do not respond.
There is no way that they can be restored.
They are gone and you feel no remorse?
And so I ask you why?
Why?
Why?
Why?
Answer me why?
Why?
Why did you do this?
Why?
Why?
Why?
Why didn't you just listen to me?
Why?
Why?
Why?
Why did you have to make it so complicated?
Why?
And yet, maybe I should know why.
But I don't.
