Why am I here

Why am i here

What did i do to get here? 

Why am I here?

How could you have done this to me?

Why am i here 

Standing here, watching you and your mother

Why am I here

If i couldn't ever have such a perfect family 

Why am I here

what was my purpose for being alone on this cold rock

Why am I here?

for you to toy with; never letting go of the strings you pull

Why? 

 Why is my heart not whole like it should be?

Why am I here 

To suffer loss, To gain nothing but life?

Why am I here, 

standing on the cliff of madness

Why am i here? 

for these sharks do not want me......

Why am i really here?

This is very deep. I love the analogy that you use with the sharks and cliff of madness. I can feel the passion that was put into this for sure. I love when people just let whatever is in their mind (especially when its a series of questions like this) come forth. thats when i think people write some of their best material. this has a very good flow to it. nice, i like it!

I really liked the second to last verse:
"Why am I here? For these sharks do not want me..."
Beautiful.

Why am i here?

Now...that is a powerful, powerful line, Ms.

"Tell me.." a lingering thought after reading this.. an abandoned soul, but what shall it do, wait, or do something drastic.. does it even matter? Questions only actions can answer.. very thought provoking, loved it.

[SilentDreamer]

Deep, I really like how you keep repeating 'Why am I here?" Makes you wonder.

[Tate Morgan]

Hmm I think it a deep eternal question my quess there is no real reason.,But I like to think of life as a journey and we are just riders
