Why Poem by Scott Stevenson

don't you know
can't you comprehend
see into my head a little bit
why

why can't I be good
and fly, fly out of here
touch you and destroy you
cast you out to uncharted waters
open ocean
open sky
why

what is holding us
together
which of us is stronger
the one for whom the clouds disappear
why is everything
nothing at all
and so much is ready to change

can't you realize the truth
can you handle
can you tell
which of us is easily torn
where the grey ends
and the silver begins
why don't you see
why
can't you be around forever
why
will I end up cold
