Why did I marry him?
What the hell was I thinking?
Only 20 years old I didnt know better,
But I guess now that doesnt matter.
Why did I have to love him so much?
Maybe I could have been better off.
Why did I want to be with him so bad?
All he does is make me sad.
Why did I give my heart to him?
I should have kept it to myself.
Why did I let him trick me,
Into thinking that we'd always be?
Why did I believe him,
When he told me he would change?
Why didnt I just leave right then?
This life would have never been.
Why did I tell him so many things?
When all he does is turn it against me.
Why does this pain hurt so much?
Why do I want to feel his touch?
Everyday that goes on,
I ask myself why....
Why cant I just simply die?
A whirl wind of comotion,
Toys with my inner emotion.
Questions inside my head,
Make it hard to sleep when I'm in bed.
I ask him why does he hurt me,
And make my heart bleed...
The only thing he replys,
Are straight out lies.

Favourite part!!
I thought this was really great. It actually hurt to read. The rhyme was really great.
Well done and good luck.
Thank you for the great poem. -
Hi, all your questions of 'why' justifies the hurt and pain from listening to this man's lies- and it is a very strong, powerful write. You've answered some of your own questions, but sometimes, some questions are unanswerable- e.g. "Why does he lie?"
Good poem here.
Thank you so much for your entry and all the best to you.
