Why Poem by James Casey

Why

I see you in my dreams
I hold you in my dreams

Why'd you leave me here all alone
I was the one who really could have known

I was not prepared to have you leave me
Now I'll pay for it you'll never let it be

You came that day to see me there you held me in your arms
Then you left me all alone wondering what I did so wrong?

You've hung with me for oh so long Why won't you let me go
Why I need to be with you I'll never really know

I'm sorry for my failure, why don't you let me be
If I die tomorrow, will that then set me free?
