I Always Poem by Atef Ayadi

ask
why i am doing it?
why?
why?
and
why?


then i asked myself
how many total whies
i am throwing
at the universe,
i mean myself.

what is ideal for me
is companionship
in a forest.
if i have to choose
one of both,
i choose
a forest;
but still one
can give a visit.
maybe one sticks in.

if there is any good reason
behind all
of this
is to live and
then thrive.
if one flips it,
survival is life,
then the rest is as easy
as to live and thrive.
