Poetry: Tell me why

by Roberta Colby

Tell me why,

Why you had to leave so soon.

I don't want you gone, you're too far away.

I can never see you, ever again.

Until I get where you are.

Tell me why,

Why God took you now,

I need you so much more

Then I did before.

My best friend,

Tell me why,

You can't be here anymore.
