The Why Poem : Adult Poetry

written by Poet : saltbg4k


why

WHY

 

Why do today

what you could put off

till’ tomorrow

when tomorrow never comes?

Why say nothing when you

want to say something

if it’s just going

to sound dumb?

Why be polite

if being pleasant

gets you nowhere

but taken advantage of?

Why fake an orgasm

if the sex was poor

does it suggest

you can’t be in love?

Why say yes

when you want to say no

will you really then

lose your face?

Why give up a dream

unless it’s an illusion

you have not

the desire to chase?

Why tell a young boy

that he shouldn’t cry

will he become

a cowardly man?

Why be the best

that you can be

if you’re doing

the best that you can?

Why participate

and put yourself out

when there are many

already involved?

Why ask why

if you expect no answer

just another question

to be solved?
