Why?

why

should I

breathe again

when all that

I inhale is misery



why

should I

maintain my locks

to compliment you

as I stand by your right side

when your head turns left



why

should I

continue to hide

behind this counterfeit smile

when desolations cells

contaminates my blood



I stand

drenched

in the pouring rain



why?



because

the reflection

in the puddle is

beautiful and strong

the reason why I bear on

a better future awaits me…
