Why Poem by Joanna Pavlides

Why



I need to know why
We go separate ways
And after a while
Is it love or lust
That brings us back

I need to know why
We cause each other's pain
And after a while
Is it loneliness or longing
That brings us back

I need to know why
We stay away
And after a while
Is it silence or cry
That brings us back

Is it because we belong
in each other's lives
We cannot live together
But we can't be without

Is it a weakness
Or is it a strength
Having been like this
Through so many turns

why

COMMENTS OF THE POEM
Kelly Seale 12 August 2012

Hi Joanna, This poem remind me of U2's With or Without You... which is one of my favorite song in the world. You have opened a door to many questions, yet the answers can be found between the words... along with that open door, your heart must also stay open to possibilities, love and loss, and the rollercoaster of life. Good luck to you, and thank you for sharing this special write. Great Ink! ! ! ; -) - Please, I invite you into my world of words, as to return the favor for touching me with yours, I want to touch you as well. -Kelly.
