Love Poem: Why

Why

It's not because I love you
It's not because of me
It's just because you know it
And you claim that you can't see
 
 
My cries
My tears
My worries and fears
 
 
It's not because I'm weak
It's not because of that
It's just because I hate it
And you know I need your pat
 
 
Prayers
Hopes
Wishes and whispers
 
 
It's not because you trust me
It's not because of you
It's just because I leave it
And you don't want to
 
 
It's not because of me
Not because of you
Not because of this or that
It's.... just because!
