Questioning Me

Why am I mourning
Someone who isn't dead?
Why am I tempting
The sorrows in my head?
Why do I imagine
A world in which they die?
Why can't I trust
That my paranoia's a lie?

Why do I grab onto
Every daydream?
Why will I make this into
More than it should seem?
Why can't I accept
An acquaintance for just that?
Why must I ask for more
Until I don't know where we're at?

Why am I smiling
When I want to cry?
Why does my laughter
Make me feel high?
Why can't I be happy
In a way that's real?
Why am I so confused
By everything I feel?

Why am I trapping myself
In an emotional box?
Why not have a key
For some of these locks?
Why do I give in
To this torture?
Why do I admit
I am so unsure?
