Why/My Explanation Poem by Bernadeth Tolentino

Why/My Explanation

Rating: 5.0


You cry and hurt and yet you say you're fine.
I know I'm to blame for every single sigh.
So why am I still here? Why do you hold me close?
Are you worried that I'll wilt, like the single white rose?
Tell me the truth. I can take it.
What I cant handle though, is if you fake it.
----
If I didn't love you I wouldn't tell you every night
All of those letters-I wouldn't really write
I'm not worried your petals will wilt
It's just my heart I'm scared to kill....

When your not around, I lose sight of life
You're my happiness and soon to be wife
So don't talk like that, my princess
Hold onto every moment
Because right now I love you
and I'm willing to do everything to show it.

You cry and hurt and yet you say you're fine. Such activity is so sad and thought provoking. This expresses emotion. Losing sight of lies is so sad, But you can hold life with beauty. This poem is an amazing poem.10
