Why

It's been some time
thinking about the same stuff since I was nine 
but yeah this is fine I will keep working for it 
but think for a bit 
Why we keep dreaming about the same stuff and work on whole other  ?
Why is it that our heart pulls us across the river and our mind wants to be safe on the Shore commands to sit ?
Why is it that we exhaust ourselves doing things you don't even love and when it comes to hobbies we are too tired because of the things that I mentioned above ?
Why is it that the rejection from past stop us from admitting what we feel in present
why am I so afraid to be that loser again instead of being excited about the future being pleasant ?
Why is it that instead of being proud about all the good things , we are insecure about that one thing bad ?
Why is it that instead of thinking we are worthy enough with think that this is something I can just wish I had ?
Why is it that we take life so lightly and thing that we have too much of time?
Other things come and go but you are (still) always on my mind !!
We have got life just once my friend 
Why can't we just hold each others hand and Shine ??

I read this and thought this poem makes a lot of sense, it should be named "Why", then I looked at the title and I laughed. I never read the title first, for some weird reason. There are so many "whys' in here that make sense! Especially the part about doing all the things we do not want to do, so we are too tired to do what we wanted to do in the first place.
