 Through The Eyes Of A Poet...

Can Anyone Tell Me?


Can anyone tell me, why it should be?
That we hurt each other, unintentionally?
Why is that, when we try so hard to be nice?
It goes out of the window, in a thrice...

Can anyone tell me, why things are so hard?
When communication stops and feelings are barred?
Why is it this way, it's so hurtful and sad?
What are we doing wrong that's so very bad?

Can anyone tell me, because I'd like to know?
What we do when we hurt, and down what road we should go?
Life is very hard I know this to be true!
It's even harder still, when we're hurting, me and you!

Can anyone tell me, why our feelings are battered?
Our hearts are bruised, and our dreams are shattered?
What's it all for, when we hurt this way?
No matter how we talk, it's the same every day.

Can anyone tell me, what I'm supposed to do?
Why I'm feeling so hurt, by things that we do?
Why is life so harsh, so cruel and sad?
What did I do that was so very bad?

Can anyone tell me, why things fall apart?
Why we hurt so much when we've a broken heart?
I can't describe the feelings inside!
The turmoil and pain that I have to hide!

Can anyone tell me, can you give me a clue?
How to go on, when I don't know what to do?
Why does our heart give us such pain?
Cause so much sadness, and drive us insane?

Can anyone tell me, can you please explain?
Why things like this happen, again and again?
What do we do in life that's so very wrong?
That would cause so much pain, a pain so strong?

Can anyone tell me, because I'd like to understand?
Why we constantly hurt when things get out of hand?
What can be done, to repair all that hurt and pain?
And prevent it happening, again and again?

Can anyone tell me, why the partings so hard?
When a loving relationship becomes battered and tarred?
To walk away, is the hardest thing to do...
But sadly now, it's best for me and you!
