Why? Published: 12-23-04

Another poem. This one's from Crysania's view. See if you can figure out what the poem means. Please read. as usual, TotT to around WotT. Short and sweet. Hope ya like.

Why

Do you hide yourself away

Behind those golden hourglasses of yours?

Why

Do you deny even a ray

Of light to shine in the empty darkness of yours?

Why

Do my hands tremble

At the touch of your fine fingertips?

Why

Do I hope and hope

Despite of what you say with your bloodstained lips?

Why

Do your eyes catch mine

And I can only stare, enthralled?

Why

Do I watch your every move

And feel so enraptured, so wowed?

Why

Do my fingers yearn

For the feel of your soft black robes, the feel surpasses?

Why

Do I wonder what lies

Behind your impassible golden hourglasses?

Why

Do I feel such compassion

For your deep, unending, burning pain?

Why

Am I standing here

Besides you in the pouring rain?

I added 'pouring' because I thought the last line needed a little more power.
