To all those reading this here,

Especially to all those I hold dear,

I write this to discern

Why I can never learn.

And so I ask a very simple question: Why?

Why am I unkind?

Why am I so blind?

Why can’t I see these signs

That tell me that I can’t make her mine?

Why am I so selfish?

Why am I so full of it?

Why am I inconsiderate

And, though aware, have done nothing to change it?

Why have I changed?

Why have I become this way?

Why have I gone astray?

Why can’t I make this insecurity go away?

Why can’t I answer all these questions, I don’t know.

Yet give a chance to say:

I may be a fool, but even so,

If it’s for you, I want to change my ways.
