Why?

Why can’t I see the beauty in a sunset?
Why do I feel so down when everything is right?
Why don’t I have faith in others?
Why can’t I believe the lie?

How do others live,
Knowing that the world is all a sham
A front for the horror of the human soul

Why can’t I feel the warmth of a sunbeam?
Why don’t I feel the truth in a hug?
Why don’t I see the person behind the eyes?
Why can’t I see the world the way they do?
