Question and Answer game

I never did understand the reasoning of a man
Perhap that is for, that I am woman
That in itself is a fallacy,
for if you know this,
than you know that,
Man and Woman are as one
in the circle of humanity

Humanity, Compassion, Love and Life.
To which of these are you Blind,
For you must be to have hurt me as you have,
Turning the years of friendship into an empty bond.
I search all the logical paths that I can
And with no answer at the end, 
I turn and ask you this softly..

Why?

No other question do I have in mind,
no inquiry of how..for that would be self-righteous,
I only seek the one reply that will set this all at ease,
But when you hide in shadows, and run from truth
How am I to follow you on your path of cowardice.


Hate is a powerful word, one that I loathe even to speak,
know this that I feel not this towards you, 
but rather frustration, disappointment, and betrayal,
And all that these twisted feelings need to be resolved is...

An Answer.
