WHY IS IT?

Why is it that some people don’t ever come through with their promises?

Is it because they had no intention of keeping them, or is it that they just don’t care enough about their word and just dismiss it?

Should we give them the benefit of the doubt, and say they had other priorities they needed to do.

Is that why they don’t come through? I don’t think so do you?

I believe they think we are just believing fools.

Maybe they are just lazy or uninspired, or maybe they think keeping their promises is just too hard.

Do we expect too much or do some people use that thought just as a crutch?

Why is it that when we think someone cares enough about us to come through for us, we get let down?

Why is it when we believe in them they dash our hopes to the ground?

Why is it that some people let lies roll off their tongues as if they were telling the honest truth? I don’t understand how they can do that do you?

They say they will do this or do that for us, but they never do it, and they don’t expect us to make a fuss.

Why is it that some people are so false and fake? Were they born that way or just keep making mistakes?

Why is it, I keep asking myself? Are there not many honest people left?

Why is it I ask over and over again? Will people ever change and become new personalities and start promising keeping once again?

Just why is it?
