Why, Fate, Why?

Came upon my doorstep

Once upon a winter's night

A man with a heavy footstep

In need of a new day's sight!

Pity overcame me and I gave him my heart

And he made of me his own sweetheart

Yet I knew not when I was all torn

And held of life as an object of mourn

Long ago that was,

Today, breathing are my scars

Even I let go of all those wars

I cannot dream again of those stars

Blurred was my whole life

Once a lover, now seeing only strife

I can only ask Fate,

You who watch my gait,

You who gave me such a sorry state

Why, Why?  Could you not wait?

Could you not let me be

Happy in this reality?

All I ever wanted was to help

All I ever did was to whelp

Like a wounded animal

                        Like a disillusioned girl in need of her pal!
