Why Why Why???

This is one of the poems that I wrote some two years back. But I still love the theme. Do not remember why I wrote it down but it was written when I was no good at this art(I ain't any good even now but improving)......

Also, I lost the second half of this poem 'coz the paper was lost(not actually...it was in my pocket and then the jeans just paid a visit to the washerman who at least did not fall in love with it....guess if he even understood it or not.......who the hell wants a poem...it ain't gonna fetch any money..so let it be there.... and when I found it, you can imagine in what condition it would have been...my poor darling had been ripped of her chastity(i know the one word for this phrase but do not find it decent enough to use)....however i was able to retrieve this small portion.... anyways , no further talks....just read the poem but one more request...
As the quotation goes "A poem is never finished,only abandoned", so anyone who wants to add anything can do so in the reply section......

Why do we always remember what we want to forget?
Why don't we achieve something which we would love to get?
Why is it that every question comes with more than one reply?
And why is it that the obvious answer is not the one that we try?
Why does every dream turn out to be a nightmare?
Why do we neglect them, who most about us care?
Why don't the expressions on the face reflect what is true?
Why do you look for faults in others, before you find it in you?
Why does keeping expectations from someone seldom gives us pain?
And why do we enjoy to bear that pain again and again?

Some more poems shall I be posting...Keep visiting....
