                I Do Not Understand


                I do not understand
                Why people drink
                why people drive drunk
                why people do not pay
                for crimes they have committed.
                But most of all,
                I do not understand
                why people die so young.
                (some people live so long
                and then they take the lives
                of those who have
                so long to live.)
                What I understand the most,
                is why you miss them.
                You knew them so long
                and you can not believe
                that someone you loved so much
                could really be gone.
                But you know that they are,
                so you promise to keep them alive,
                forever, in your heart.
