Sometimes I wonder
If things truly happen for a reason
If they do,
Why let our best friends
be backstabbers?
Why have the closest people in our lives
be the ones to always have
a second opinion?
Should life always be unexpected?
Or should the unexpected be expected?

beautiful concept and I do believe the unexpected should be the next thing we expect to happen. Keep writing!
