'''' Why Can’t You? Poem by .Pd. is here

Through the shifting sands of time
I waited for you to be mine
And I saw the rain
It washed away my pain
If only for a while.

The summer turned to winter
And the roses bloomed and wilted
But you still didn’t turn up
At the doors of my heart
And said the three precious words
That I yearned to hear.

Don’t you feel my love?
Can’t you hear my heartbeats?
Can’t you sense my heart speaking?

The blind can feel love
The deaf can hear heartbeats
The dumb can declare their love

Then why can’t you?
