Why Should I?

Why Should I?

A Poem by Susan M. Fenn

Yes you took them

You took them all

And yes, I do feel guilt

Is it misplaced?

I think so, only because

Its been over a year

Over a year since you were my ward

I have moved on

Found new love

And he is patient, and kind

He understood, why I cried

When I thought you would die

I wonder if you could have done the same?

Probably not, and it wouldn't have been your fault

But, then again, what you chose to do

With your body that night

Is not my fault either

I almost slipped, fell back in

If it weren't for my Lion

I would have ran back, tried to pick up your pieces

But, Ryan, that isn't my place. It isn't my job

I do wish for you

What ever will be best for you

But other than that, I am done...
