Why?: by Andrew C.

Why should I care that you've gone?
Why should your smell still make me cry?
Why should your picture in my wallet hold my eye?
Why should I always stop before I finish dialing your number?
Why should I have so much trouble meeting someone new?
Why should I hold everyone up next to you?
Why should the bed seem so big without you in it?
Why do I keep buying all of your favorite foods?
Why can't I move on?
Why does the taste of gun oil remind me of your kiss?
Why won't these people stop screaming?
Why can't they see that this is the only way out?
Why did you have to yell when you saw me?
Why can't you just love me like I still love you?
Why is your hair still so beautiful, even full of blood?
Why can't I pull the trigger, now?
Why can't I bear to join you, when it's all that I want?
Why?
