Each new day

Draws me closer

To the inevitable

Still I fail

To understand

To comprehend

My purpose

 

As the sun rises

I awaken with hope

Today will bring me clarity

It’s now or never

I will rest my head

Having found the answer

To my why

 

The sun sets

At the end of each

Long day

And once again

I make the promise

To myself

 

Tomorrow

Your questions

Will be answered

And so, I lie

Content

 

The days pass

Like hungry lions

Devouring my very essence

Somehow I survive

Only to find myself

Asking the same old questions

 

No answers

Just a million little

Why's?
