Random "why?"

Why don't the stars weep?
Why don't the moon melt?
Why one has to die?
and why the others have to cry?
Why do they love?
Why do they care?
Why 'am deceiving?
and Why I am not the same?
Why don't they understand?
Why 'am alone once again when
everyone is here to hold my hand?

So many "Why"s. Why? ;-)

Nice one, except I didn't understand the usage of "Why 'am decieving?". Did you mean "Why 'am being deceived?" or did you really mean you are sort of elusive? I think you meant the former guessing from the tone of the poem and notice the spelling of 'deceive' ;-). Overall, a really random Why, but this is the sort of randomness one feels.
