When Exactly

When exactly did the dream turn into a nightmare?
When exactly did I fall out of favor?
When exactly did I not measure up?
When exactly?

When exactly did I do something wrong?
When exactly did I not appear strong?
When exactly did you change your mind?
When exactly?

When exactly did you want something else?
When exactly was my love not enough?
When exactly did you become so tough?
When exactly?

Incredible...

That reminds me so incredibly of myself nowadays...I couldn't have possibly worded it better myself.

Great poem. I really like it (heck, I like all of yours that I've read so far, but that's not the point).
