Why..?

               
WHY..?
 
Why am I constantly being insulted
Did I give any reasons for that?
Each time I feel so frightened
Of the boorishness I never accept.

Why people think everything is permitted
Is it right to trample dignity like that?
Each time I feel so disturbed.
To stay myself – it is so hard…

Why is it so difficult right now
Does someone ruin me deliberately?
Each time I feel so bitter and small…
Will this powerlessness ever pass irrevocably?

Why do I have to pray so long
Can’t I get the repentance I deserve for me?
Each time I keep chasing on and on.
Seeking respect, I get mere crumbs of it.
