Why Not Me..? Poem by Nikki Taboada

Why is it that
When it comes to choosing between her and me
You choose her

Why is it that
After all the times I’ve cared for you after she threw you away
You choose her

What is it that
Makes her so much better than I can ever be
You always choose her

What is it that
Makes you love her so much more than you could ever love me
You always choose her

How is it that
No matter what I do, you’ll never love me like you love her
You’ve chosen her over me

How is it that
No matter what she puts you through – you always go running back to her
You’ve chosen her over me

What is it that draws you to her..?
Why is it that you can still love her after all she’s put you through..?
How is it that I am nothing to you even after all the times I cared for you..?
