Unanswered questions

What happens when one loses hope?
How do they carry on....how do they cope?
Why are they hopeless and lonely?
Can they not see that life can be lovely?

I guess instead of "they" I should say "I,"
I sit still while everyone else passes me by.
And I ask myself how I became so lonely,
But I never did find an answer, and turned away shyly.

I did, however, realize that the hole in me was growing,
But am I yearning for? For what am I searching?
Is there not a soul who can give me what I want?
Will this question torture me with every taunt?

It looks like I will find what I seek,
It looks like I will always be weak.
Yet I wonder, what did you see?
I saw so many faults yet you never belittled me.

In fact I always laugh when you say something nice,
Yet your words filled me with warmth while others with ice.
You were always kind and loving,
So tell me why did you leave? I never saw it coming.

It wasn't your fault yet I still ask why?
Why did you leave when you wanted to be mine?
Why did losing you fill me with a sadness I do not understand?
I want to but I don't think I can.

I can't no, couldn't know how important you were till you left,
Was your smile really that much of a gift?
So many questions please help me answer them!
Will you...can you help me? I am overwhelmed.

I try but without you I can't see my path I have no direction,
So I will sit here forever...with these unanswered questions.
