Analysis of Why
Earlene Hedrick 1964 (IN)
Lost in uncertainty. Blinded by the fear of abandonment. Yet unable to flee. Wanting desperately to be loved by you. Yet hesitation has taken control of me. Doubts have entered my mind. Caution lights are flashing. Warning me to see the signs. Yet i refuse to look. Why. Do i continue to live in denial. Why. Can i not accept the truth. Why. Do i look for more than there is. Why. Do i look for you.
