Why?

Sometimes a good bye is all you need to say
To move on in life and get on your way
For if you stop every now and then to think
You will fill yourself up to the brink
Yet some questions go unaddressed forever
Answer them yourself and life may just get better
Why do you have to carry the mantle of how the world perceives you
Why do you have to wear a fake smile worrying from within about how you are seen through
Why are material gains the measure of failure or success
Why is succeeding financially the only sign of progress
What happened to being a nice being
Why is it so hard to look at what the rest of the world is seeing
Why do we while away our todays in the worry of tomorrow
Why do most of have so little joy and so much sorrow
Why is kindness not remembered and cruelty so easily forgotten
Why do exteriors look astonishing even though internally all is rotten
Why do all of us put on an unknown facade
Why is finding true love so hard
God only knows when this unanswered list will end…
