The First Poem

Back before I started therapy, I would occasionally try to express my feelings through poetry. Much of it was terrible but just a few would really begin to say how I was feeling at the time. When I wrote this first one, I was still married (the first time) I showed it to my husband and he completely missed the point. I know it's not the best of work but I had hoped he would see something in it. Alas, that was never to be the case.


Why?

Why do I feel tired all the time?

Why do I struggle just to say "I'm fine?"

Why is my memory so poor

Except for things I did when I was four?

Why has my libido gone?

Why does everything I do seem wrong?

Why do I hate birthdays so much?

Why do I shy away from his touch?

Why do I always want to cry

Without ever really knowing "Why?"
