Can a day go by without questions

Can a day go by without answers  

Does everything have to be figured out today right here – right now

Can my nights be free of these in my dreams

Can the stars just shine and say I’ll be fine 

Does everything have to be solved right here – right now

Can I just know someday I’ll find my answers

Can I just wake and know my life is mine

Why am I asking questions when I know the answers, can’t I just feel for this life

5

Wanting answers for this soul

that are not yours to reply

But I’m choosing truths that are so shallow

Whose meanings are trying to reach so high

4

Wanting your time to borrow

To try and fill my bones

But I’m chasing a shadow that feels so hollow

Who’s looking for its home

3

Hoping the altitudes of this defiant heart

sentenced with those terminal emotions              

will withstand the quicksand of these notions

and feel for this life

2

with such beautiful rhythm –

you were fireworks, brilliant sparks, blinding me so beautifully

showing my solitary shadow walking along the saddest moonlight

can my falling heart ever find its way back to its peaceful prior existence?

always soaring sky high but forever falling into you
