Why do people do bad things? Answer this question by writing a poem.
I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to hurt you.
So then why did you? Do you love him?
No of course not, she said.
I love you, she said.
She said this but I couldn’t trust her, how could I?
I just want to know why? why would you do this?
I looked at her.
Are you not happy with me?
Are you done with me?
It’s none of that, she looks away.
So then why?
Holding the urge to walk away.
I don’t know, it just happened.
Bad things just happen sometimes.
She cried.
I cried too.
