Why?
You ask.
And I give you
The question why?
Nothing is resolved
Nothing lies answered.
Only questions
Why?

Why have I been brought to this spot?
Why do I live and exist while others have not?
Where will I go?
Who will I see?
Just what will become of me?
The answers not told at least not to me
But then if I knew
What would I do?
With that which is laid out for me?

I am here and have not seen why
All the answers evade
And I question why.
Heart and soul both
Don’t know the reason
The reason why.
Deep breath, let it rest
Then I may understand and see the answer
To my why, my question why.

Cpl. Nathan Cirillo, was shot and killed while on honorary guard at the National War Memorial in Ottawa.
Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent, was killed after being struck in a hit-and-run attack in St-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Quebec.
Death, killed and died
Did no wrong, we cry
We cry.
Makes no sense
Why, why
Why?
Death, death
No reason why
No sane reason why.
~ Patrice
My condolences to the family, the friends of
Cpl. Nathan Cirillo and Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent
They served with courage and with honour. They gave the ultimate sacrifice.
Rest in the arms of God, brave soldiers
We Thank You. We Honour You

Why or what can’t be the question I ask not now
Just shouldn’t be.
How won’t work
Just couldn’t be.
Therefore I stand still and wait for the force to
Just tell me.

Why do we try?
Why do we cry?
Why do we die?
What else is there to learn
When we’ve learnt it all?
Silly oh so small is the mind
Maybe that wonders such things
Holding those thoughts
Not moving forward at all.
Why?
Wondering that’s all.

A bright star fades, gone from view
High in my sky, gone to dim
Don’t know why, don’t know when.
When a bright star fades far from view
Makes me cry, makes me sad
Don’t know why, don’t know when.
Lost love on earth, gone to dim
When a bright star fades, gone from view
Don’t know why, don’t know when.
That warm love gone, gone to dim
When a bright star fades, fades from view
Don’t know why, don’t know when.
