Oh Why

written by: Deena6a

Ohhhhhhhhhhh WHY
Why do you always make me cry
There must have been a wrong
Because you always have a way of making me undone

Oh! WHY
Do you try and make things die
Even when I struggle to fly
You take away my sun
Make me feel like life isn't fun

And I
I constantly try
To make you see that I
Am not a person you can warp your way
Even though you once held me as a babe
And promised to take away my fear and woes

It was a lie, just words

And although you try and hide
The words you have poisoned deep
And the wounds are still there
Even though I try to ignore
And move towards another place
But you have always had a way
To steal the very breath I take
Out of the last things I have left.
But then again that is what you do best.

OH why!
Can't you just leave it be
And stop me from wanting to break free
And WHY can't you just shut up and fly
Instead of keeping me down here to die
Living in a world where I have to listen to dread

It is like being part of the dead.

AND WHY
Can't we just in these final years together
Just be friends instead of Mother and Daughter
You are not so young, and I have a daughter of my own
And Why would I want anything less
I have spent my entire life trying for this
