Upset



Why do people speak, only to be rude?
Why talk when in a bad mood?
Why fall in love to only be heartbroken?
Why fall only to be hurting?
Why talk when you think I’m asleep?
Why does it hurt to talk when it’s skin deep?
Why come only to leave?
Why listen to only be naive?
Why have friends only to find out to be fake?
Why like people only to hate?
Why live only to die someday?
Why speak only to say hey?
Why make a person cry?
Why be happy when you’re sad inside?
Why try to hide?
Why say hi only to say goodbye?
Why only to wonder why?
