*+*+*****+**+*+*+*+*+*+*+**+**+ ~Why~ +**+*+**+*+*+*+*+*+*+**+*****+*+*

Why do we exist?
Why do we struggle to tolerate others we cannot stand?
Why is it that after all that we do
fate turns around and offers us solutions that are contriband?

~*~

You may have love, but you must suffer to acheive it
You may have friends but you must endure their deceit
You may be happy while terrible things happen around you
You may have hope to offer false comfort in your illusions

~*~

Why do I constantly try?
Why should I? Constantly disappointed by their failures oh why..
The selfishness of others - they segment the world
Islands of darkness and lightness are hurled

Black and white squares divided from each
Laid out on a plane, far out of reach
The world a dark chess board with god as its master
Guiding its pieces - his pawns to disaster

And when the king's dead, his allies obliterated
His horses all captured, his mighty queen confiscated
When everything is lost and nothing is spared
At least we all tried, we failed - but he cared.

~*~

But somewhere is somebody else that might care
Somebody, someplace, I do not know where
A mythical being of compassion and understanding
A soulmate beyond reach, waiting... your perfect being.

This being will listen when noone else cares
Listening to your fears, your hopes and your scares
They will try to make things work as hard as you will
Never giving up, ensuring you "we'll make it over that hill"

Together you'll triumph, alone but together
Your love for each other eternal - forever.
But until that time - you have to be strong and be patient
You're perfect - you're worth it - keep waiting - you'll make it!
