Why…

So many questions…with no answers to them
So many thoughts in your head, seem to stem
Why don’t you have any clarity, why are you befuddled?
Guess everyone goes through this, the happy and the troubled.

You love only to go away
You meet only to never stay
You want a friend, that special someone
Only to realize that someone can never become.

You don’t own anyone, you can’t hold on
You must learn to accept that, so you don’t get torn
Life has its ways, it gives and it takes,
It can build relationships, feelings, emotions; the same it can break.

Optimism is a good thing they say
How do they know! Reality is gray
Though somewhere, sometime you must learn to laugh it off
Before your frailties look at you and scoff.

No one can help you with this, there is no end
Turn to yourself; you are your best friend.
You can do this, I have faith in you
For you are me and I am you.
