I still remember the way, <br />I held you close to me. <br />In every word you sad, <br />I heard a symphony. <br /> <br />You used to look into my eyes, <br />And could see through my soul. <br />Staying close to you forever, <br />Had become my life’s only goal. <br /> <br />You wiped my tears, <br />When I poured my heart out to you. <br />Held my hand and said: <br />“We will make it through.” <br /> <br />All the things you said, <br />Thought we would spend an eternity together. <br />The way the voice came from your heart: <br />“Don’t want to lose you…never.” <br /> <br />Now you tell me, <br />All that was a lie. <br />Force me to sit alone, <br />Rip my heart and cry. <br /> <br />Why do I still think, <br />That the roots go deep? <br />Why does this thought come to me, <br />Every time I weep? <br /> <br />If you had to give me pain, <br />Why did you give me happiness? <br />Why did you show me all the colors, <br />If you had to leave me in this nothingness? <br /> <br />Why did you teach me how to smile, <br />If you were going to make me cry? <br />Why did you teach me not to give up, <br />Not to give up and just try? <br /> <br />Why did you take my heart? <br />Why did you steal it away? <br />Why did you teach it how to beat for someone else, <br />When you were going to break it and throw it away? <br /> <br />I may never get an answer, <br />For the questions that I ask. <br />Living my life happily, <br />Seems like an impossible task. <br /> <br />I hope you never have to bear, <br />All the pain you put me through. <br />I still remember your words: <br />“I’ll always be there for you.” <br /> <br />Now you tell me, <br />All that was a lie. <br />Force me to sit alone, <br />Rip my heart and cry.<br /><br />Ridah Ellahi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/unanswered-questions-13/
