Love Poem: Why

Why

I know I should be sad right now
I know that I should cry
I know that I'm supposed to say,
I still love you, I love you! Why?

But the truth is maybe I don't anymore
or maybe the truth is I can't
Because you're not the boy I loved anymore
You've changed, and I suppose for good

I hoped that you could return to you
the man you should have been
but that hope died somewhere
and I'm stuck where you could've been

I guess I should chase after you
if that's what everyone expects
but I don't really want to try right now,
for without you I now have my peace within

I still want to be together, possibly
At least I suppose I should try
but I don't even care for you anymore
What I ask myself is why?
