Don't Know Why

By: Elizabeth Gomez

Don't feel that you love me
Don't feel you appreciate me
Don't kiss me like you used to
Nothing you do feels like you

A girl needs love once in a blue
Even a walk and look at the moon
It's all about you and your friends
And not once do I run through your head

You're never home on the weekends
and I hardly see you on the weekdays
I feel like I don't even know you anymore
I want us to feel what we felt before

I think of this every day
And try to understand in different ways
But nothing seems to ease my pain
And hatred is all I gain

Don't treat me the way I want
Don't communicate and don't even bond
Sometimes, I decide that you don't even want to be with me
So why can't you just tell me and just let it be

I'm not the little girl who used to cry at night
I'm a young women who can now see the light
No more darkness around my life
No more thought of being your wife

I blame everything on you
For not taking care of me the way your supposed to
Your car seems like number one
You're just always in it; just gone

I need you in my life
I need things to feel right
Don't pretend to love me
Then walk out the door and forget about me

Just tell me the truth
And I won't have to feel blue
Regardless of your opinion
I can handle it because I'm a grown woman

Maybe that's what it is
That I'm too much for you
And you just can hang with what I do
