Find out who you are and do it on purpose.


Why Me?
Why me, I ask?
Why Me?
I was only four
Not even yet counted
As a girl, let alone
a woman.
Maybe that's why
You chose me
It took seven years
Until you left and
Let me be
And even now
Still I ask
Why me?
Now your gone
And though I am happy
I still wonder 'what if'
What if you find another me
So now instead of wondering
I ask What if's and Just maybe's
Now I'm sorry to say
Actually Maybe Not
I can't wait until you rot
Or go to Hell
Which ever comes first
Why Me?
I still don't understand
Was it because
My foolish parents
Trusted you
Or Because I was
The easy target?
I wonder.
All I know now that
Your gone is
I am Free
Free to live and
Free to love

This is my first poem.
Not the greatest but it'll do
It was written a while ago when I started having nightmares about him coming back
