Why me?

It is about a heart broken gorgeous young lady who lost her husband at the hay days of their wedding.

Why me?

Is it bad luck?

Is it because of demons?

Is it the work of evil spirits?

Is it a curse?

Is it revenge?

Is it punishment?

Is it the work of the devil?

That the mother of all bad luck befells me,

Was I born cursed?

That all ill-luck is tried and tested on me,

Is it  heredity?

That I am born a loser,

That I am born a victim,

Why me?

To be a bird of prey,

Why me?

To lose my husband soon after the wedding?

Soon after honey moon,

Why me ?

To be left pregnant with a child ,

Who would not see his handsome dad,

Why me?

To be  made a widow at nineteen,

Why, why,and why this blow?

When life was so sweet for us,

Oh, God,I want to know ,why ?

Do I deserve to be cursed?

So young in life,

Why, why, and why me?

To be the sacrificial lamb,

Why me ?

What a heartbreaking poem. Being widowed and pregnant and 19, I can't imagine. My daughter was widowed at 20, she was not with child, but that didn't make it any easier.
