WHY ME GOD

Why me God? Why is my life so filled with tears? 
Does he have to hit? what has he to gain? 
as he rips my clothes-Do you feel my pain? 

Why me God? why can't my mother hear my cries? 
When I scream her name-does she have a choice? 
When I cry in the night-in a small child's voice. 

Why me God?  Why is it I have to carry this load? 
Did I do something wrong? Is is something I've said? 
Am I just a mistake? AM i BETTER OFF DEAD? 

AND WHY O GOD-  couldn't I have a normal life? 
Did you give ME eyes- to watch OTHER kids play? 
To see the joy on THEIR faces- day after day? 

And why O God- couldn't you give me understanding? 
Is there a lesson to learn? Or is it too much to ask? 
Will I smile someday? Will it be my Last? 

BECAUSE GOD...IF YOU'LL JUST TELL ME WHY! 
IF YOU'LL JUST SHOW ME THE WAY.. 

Then maybe I can feel worthy-  in some small way
