A Reason For Everything

They say that everything happens

For a reason.

They say that good comes out

Of everything.

But who are they to know?

Who are they to think that good is coming

Out of all the violence, all the horror

I have seen.

They say that everything happens

For a reason.

They say that good comes out

Of everything.

But what is good about a girl,

A child like me,

Having to build a mask?

The mask that I have built over my

Emotians and fears

They say that everything happens

For a reason.

They say that good comes out

Of everything.

But can they say why?

Can they answer the questions

Of a girl who must fight?

I, who must fight for the right

To stay alive

Asks them why.

Do they have an answer?

They say that everything happens

For a reason.

They say that good comes out

Of everything.

But what good comes out of terror?

What is the reason for violence?

And what good comes out of us going through the

Evil of war?

We are all children, yet we have lost the

Innosence we once had.

Tell me the reason for that.
