Why

This poem was written in 2000, I have it handwritten in a diary I used to keep at that time, below is the note I wrote at that time about the poem and then the poem itself.

" This poem was written by me during one of the lowest phases of my life. But it holds the promise of tomorrow too. This poem is not to make you sad, but to show us the error of our ways and to inspire us to make a better, hopefilled tomorrow "

Why do things happen as they do
Why do people behave that way too
Why do we feel, oh! so sad
Due to these things others do

Why do hearts break
Why do tears flow
Why is there deceit
Where did pure love go

There are things in this world no one knows
Questions that are never answered
God made people, he made them love too
But still hearts break & tears flow
Still there is deceit and love for show

Somewhere through the ages we've lost our way
Forgotten our path and gone astray
Let us love but once and true
Let us have faith in all we do

May He give us the strength and the fortitude too
To bear with a smile things people say
For remember,
Tomorrow is Another Day!
