Find Out Why

You can be mistaken
You may never get it right
You might be at the wrong fence
You could be the one caught in the web

Her heart might still be lonely
She could still be in the cold
My seat could still be empty in there
She might still be wandering without a compass

Yet, like my name 
I stiffened my mind
Not bothered about the real why
Alas! I say to myself “Find out why”

Great...If the eighth stanza read as follows: She might still be wandering in wonder...rhyming with the forth stanza...You would've scored 7 out of 7. The last stanza makes you a seeker. Excellent.
