Why

Why...?

I asked

The midnight sky

And the tears

In my eyes

Why is it

That rain

Falls downward

And clouds

Stay up

As i sat on the bench

And questioned

The position of the stars

And the alignment

Of the sun

Why is it

That god is real

Without proof

And happiness

Is a stae

That i seem to chase

But never reach

So close but so far away...
