What You Don't Understand

by Meme   Feb 14, 2012


Why should I care ..
.. when you chose not to
.. when you left without a clue
.. when you painted my life blue
.. when you found someone new

Why should I wait ..
.. when it was only me who bled
.. when you decided to move ahead
.. when you ignored the words I said
.. when you have new plans instead

Why should I try ..
.. when you easily gave up
.. when you refused to grow up
.. when I called and you hung up
.. when you always stood me up

Why should I cry ..
.. when it is always your fault
.. when you blame me first by default
.. when you begin to through assaults
.. when you drove us to a definite halt
.
.
.
.
But I will care,
I will wait, try and
I will cry,
because only I hold the answers
to those whys.

    This is absolutely beautiful and emotionaly sad but assuring. It is relatable to anyone, not neccessarily a heartbreaking relationship. It applies to happy lovers and in marriages too.

    Everyone one way or the other compromises his or her little part of happines to have an understanding and peaceful home regards to marital cases. Reason been, you only know why you tolerate such irrational acts thus the partner also can't risk loosing you too.

    So same also applies with lovers. I like the style you used, gives it that unique element it requires. You write beautifully always, very inspiring. Keep it up dear, Mashallah. Blessings, love you shweety. xxx :)

    Hun this is a very unique poem here.

    I love the way it is set out, something different and new!

    To me it's like asking all these questions that are going on in your head, the way it flows makes me think that you are in need for these answers sooner than later as you are trying to move on with your life. I can feel a certain urgency in the way you have written it and the words expressed.

    Some of these questions I have asked myself a number of times in my different relationships. I think there are other people out there who will be feeling some of the way you are feeling as well.

    I love that this poem is different! It's refreshing!!!
