Why Me? Poem by muhammed medhat

Why am i the one to suffer in my sleep?
why am i the one you make so cheap?

is it a sin to want you beside?
am i wrong to dream of your voice?
for my lonleliness i fail to hide
i need you and i have no choice

i'm far away with nothing but words to speak
and when they fail me..oh how i'm lost how i feel weak

for the times past and the times to come
one of your boys i'll always remain
i've been yours though mine you wont become
yet i try to stand still..and try to hide my pain
but when you leave me..i fall apart and of my pride i lose the remianing some
i reach for you and its your indefference that i gain

i'm one of those who fell for you but you didnt catch
and when it comes to experience.. for you i'm no match

i'm not that harsh..or even that strong
for my fall wasted my pride and broke my heart
was it your fault or was i the wrong
i dont care and there i go falling from the start

and there you are dropping me once again as you'll never care
i wish to forget you..i wish i was that tough
but of solitude i've had long years of my share
and of my lonely nights i've had enough

have you made me cheap or have i been cheap ever since the begining?
it makes no difference..for you're cheap my darling and you're the one i dream of winning?
