Why?

I wonder why,
We made the choices we did,
Why we chose the inexperienced,
The ones without wisdom,
As our guides,


I wonder why,
So many people left,
Travelling into a world alone,
Leaving their parents and friends behind,
In hope of a better life,
Away from the pain and anguish,
Faraway..
Burying their pasts,
Becoming another,
Someone new,


Two cultures,
One person,
So many critics,
Few Supporters,
A lone journey,
To find a place,
Between East and West,
A balance,
A love that's illusive,
Happiness and sorrow become one,
It's an existence,
One that's accepted,
A compromise..
Is it worth it?
