Tell Me Why
14 May, 2004
author: Rebecca Ditch-Hammack (aka Dreamer)
Tell Me who I am
Tell me why I am here
Tell me the reasons I must suffer
My God tell me why
Am I good enough
Am I who you wanted me be
Am I your martyr
My God tell me why
Is this my destiny
Is this how it was supposed to end
Is this pain with reason
My God tell me why
I have done as you asked
I have done my human best
I have done it all
My God tell me why
I beg of you... Please tell me why
------- Author's Notes -------
I wrote this after watching a movie about Joan-of-Arc. I can only imagine her cries for understanding. |
