Why and I

Why pondering over past
When my life would never last 

Why crying for the love
When my heart is a dove
 
Why waiting for him
When chances are so dim

Why combating my life
when I can make a dive

Why pinching my heart
When I can take a start

Why scourging my soul
When I can make a goal

Why squandering my years
When I can learn to bear

Why wailing in my mind
When I'm so short of time

Why misleading myself
When wisdom is on my shelf

Why boiling my blood
When life is not that tough
