Salt In The Wound

Why do people feel the need to prolong pain?
Why do ex partners feel the need to talk again?

Why would old lovers not make a clean break?
Why would you break someones heart twice for goodness sake?

Why can we not stand by our decisions?
Why can we not see how selfish it is to make contact after cutting?

Why can't we learn to take responsibility?
Why can't we understand that you can't break someones heart and still hold their hand?

Why can't we see the torture we impose?
Why can't we just move on and let go?

Why do we give in to our selfish needs?
Why do we feel the need to make them bleed while we grieve?

Why do we torture ourselves so?
Why do we allow our thoughts of longing to show?

Why do we continue to entertain thoughts of being loved by them again?
Why do we wish, want and hope when logic is what's keeping us afloat?

Why do people allow themselves to go down this route?
Why do people drag us through this pain, over and over again?

Why put salt in the wound?
Why add to the pain?
Why not just bare your own heart break instead of breaking mine again?
