Why Me?
I ain't perfect and will never be
Full of bemusement I asked, "Why me?"
I'm ridiculously busy... got no time
Couldn't even think of impeccable rhyme
Time stood still whenever I'm alone
Read your sweet messages on my phone
Guilt then slowly crawled into my system
Lump in my throat... a thorn on a rose stem
Never once was there when you needed me
I'm selfish with a soul painfully free
The undying question of "Why me?" arose
For society will certainly oppose
In my mind you deserve someone better
Leaving me? Undeniably clever!
Though it hurts to finally be apart
I will forever keep you in my heart

As for this poem... hmmn~ how do I put it???
I'm not sure if it's in my own perspective or someone else's... haha
I'm more of... "Why him??" type of person??? jk~
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed it!
