"I Don't Understand"
by: S. Lindberg
I don't understand
why the universe goes on forever
why I am bad at math but good at writing
why my older brother is mean
But most of all
why bad things happen
why people die
why children get sick
What I understand most is,
why I love my family
why school is important
why the sun shines
why the universe goes on forever
why I am bad at math but good at writing
why my older brother is mean
But most of all
why bad things happen
why people die
why children get sick
What I understand most is,
why I love my family
why school is important
why the sun shines
