All I Want To Know Is Why?

This poem was inspired by real-life experiences and being caught in a web of lies, abuse and infidelity.

All I want to know is why...

Why did you use me as a rebound?

Do blue hearts represent sadness?

All I want to know is why...

Did you always have to put me down?

Am I only just a joke to you?

All I want to know is why...

How does it feel to be a cheater?

Why do you keep everyone a secret?

All I want to know is why...

Did you have my soul away?

Will I ever get it back?

All I want to know is why...

Did you have to tell lies to me?

And she told me what you did!

All I want to know is why...

Do you give neurodivergence a bad name?

It doesn't justify your actions.

All I want to know is why...

Did you thrive upon my heartbreak?

How can you really feel nothing?

All I want to know is why...

Are you nothing but a liar and a cheat?

Why can't you stop being abusive?

All I want to know is why...

Why can't you disappear?

You're a natural manipulator!

All I want to know is why...

Did call me a disease-ridden word

That frankly shouldn't be heard?

All I want to know is why?

Do you suck the happiness out of people

From this day on we are enemies.
