Why Do I Feel This Way? Poem by Connie Leigh Lindsay

Why do I feel this way?
feel so lonely amongst my family and friends.
Why do I feel this way?
feel so lost when I know where I am and want to go.

Why do I feel this way?
feel so unhappy when I have all the important things in life.
Why do I feel this way?
feel so confused and hurt when no one has done me wrong.

Why do I feel this way?
feel like I want something else than what I have.
Why do I feel this way?
feel like this shouldn't really be my life.

Is there something wrong with me?
Am I the only one who feels this way?
Why can't anyone I know understand?
Why can't I be content anymore?

Why am I regretting every decision I have ever made?
Why do I wish for a different life when the one I have isn't bad?
Why can't I be happy with who I am anymore?
Will these feelings ever go away or am I destined to feel this way forever?

Why do I feel this way?
I really wish I knew.
