Just ask.
Go on, ask me.
Don't be afraid.
Why unlocks the secrets to the universe.
When I say something, how do you know it's what I mean?
Just ask why.
You never know what I might say.
When you ask.
Truth be told, I might be so shocked that you asked me, but I would be grateful.
My heart would pour out of my chest, emptying myself of emotions and problems, the very essence of my chaotic-ness that you might fall over.
You have to be carful.
Don't ask me why until you are ready.
That's probably why no one asks.
They are scared to unlock the secret whispering of someone's heart, to be held responsible with someone's innermost secrets and hopes.
They are scared to carry the weight of another soul while they are are struggling to pull their own.
They are afraid.
They don't want to know.
Yet they hope, hope someone's going to come along asking why.
But no one ever does.
The cages stay locked because those who hold the key live in fear of what's inside.
Just Ask,
Why
