Why I Cry Poem by Zachary Buchholz

In your memories I fade,
In that deathbed you laid,
You left me all alone,
The second chance I had was blown,

The light shown, waking me gently,
Still with you on my mind,
I lost my breath, my face grew pale,
When I remembered your death,

Screaming as I lay in bed,
Trying to forget what's in my head,
Convincing myself it was all a lie,
Hopefully stopping all the tears I cry,
I only wish that I knew why,
Why I cry,

I've never felt this way before,
I feel rotten to the core,
I can't stand the thought of myself,
The pain inside, is rising to misery,

Screaming as I lay in bed,
Trying to forget what's in my head,
Convincing myself it was all a lie,
Hopefully stopping all the tears I cry,
I only wish that I knew why,
Why I cry....
