Because the last "wa" you wrote in Romaji is originally a particle.

@aestetik
originally, more than hundreds years ago(or one thousand), it was pronounced ha(は) .
but after that only the sound changed to "wa" , but we still use same letter は。
so we know the gap between letter は and sound wa (わ)。
nowadays some people claim we should chage the letter to こんにちわ*、 so it's really controversial matter.
