You've conditioned yourself to meditate in only one position, that's all. You can (and should!) teach yourself to meditate in other positions. I can meditate sitting in a chair, lying down in my bed, waiting for a bus, riding in the car, in the waiting room of a dentists' office, pretty much anywhere. I deliberately trained myself to do this because I wanted the flexibility. I very much recommend it.
FWIW, I can't sit in a lotus or half-lotus or anything even resembling a lotus position, due to having fat thighs and also having significant problems with my knee joints, so I never meditate that way. Definitely not necessary.
May the light surround you, may you be blessed. May the light surround us, may we be blessed. May love and light surround us all, and may we all be healed and blessed. And so it is, and so it shall be, now and ever after.
