The Wonders Of Why

As time goes by i wonder why,
why i forget a lot of things,
how birds know how to sing,
and why girls like shiny things,
why people cry a lot,
even when their happy,
why people have fake smiles,
and will do whatever to get what they want,
if that means lie's and hurting you,
sometimes people think thats what they have to do,
why you play sad songs when your crying,
or sometimes you feel like your dying,
the joy and happiness you feel,
why do we get this way,
how come the colors we see aren't real,
and they sky's not really blue,
everything is sometimes confusing,
but sometimes those things are amusing,
never thought id like hot dogs,
but i guess i like them cold,
its pretty funny how things work out,
you never know what's coming next,
next thing you know your lost in time,
sometimes you feel like you wanna cry,
in life you never know what you'll find,
a lump a rock? maybe a shoe,
all i can advise is just be YOU.

Thinking about how things work out really get my mind thinking, never thought about a lo of things until i sat and realized how its funny the things that work out and things that people, i think this is one of my different writing's cause normally wouldn't write a poem or a piece like this but i like to go outside of my box sometimes. I hope you all like it!
