You whispered why
do things happen as they do
why do some feel more then others
and why when you try your hardest
why doesn't it matter
why do some have it so easy
and others suffer
as I do

Intensely you said with fear
its scary
all of us struggle
all of us feel
each of us deals with it differently
some of us
never understand
the cruelty

there has to be a reason

for us to hang on
to the bare thread

for life
