The Why

I know from love and I understand from need That love reaches further  then need could ever dream  That need is born from sadness And love is spawned by beauty It is the unreasonable runner   that keeps running  with no finish line in sight That love is circumstance unrefined This is why I still love you This is the why in my try

Morning Joe! Wonderful rhyme scheme and some unscheduled assonance! The -why- in the –try-, well said. I could spend time dissecting the theme, but any who have been there are dissecting it even as we speak. You repetitive words assume much of the theme’s final caricature; that being- it doesn’t go away! Well done. BTW, S1L4 - -than- rather the –then-?

Sincerely personal poem that just seems flawless - it could be a card - that's how well you've chosen your words and structure - All 3 verses are worth so much more recognition than my critique - I hope you put this aside and publish it - complete success; Deni
