"Why?"

Why do they do this?
Will someone please tell me
why, at a time when I'm broken,
someone wants to break me further?
It's bad enough getting through each day,
but when someone you love is hurt and
your mother is ill, it just makes you wonder
what you're living for.

Why do they want to hurt me?
What is the point of setting store
by appearances when they know
I'm not like that? All they want to do
is rip me to shreds and they don't
seem to realise that I'm broken already!
I can barely find a light in my life and yet
they still try to snuff out the light.

I'm already broken. I'm already torn.
Certain people want to make my life hell.

Why?
