I Wonder

I wonder how it got there, I wonder how it lost its way. I wonder why it sits there with not a friend today. I wonder, did it fall like Alice fell from above? I wonder why it sits by itself, all alone in the mud. I wonder will it move next week, I wonder will it move tomorrow. I wonder will it still be there the next day, I wonder if it has control. I wonder if it has debt to repay, I wonder if it has hope that was borrowed. I wonder if it wants to move, I wonder, does it want to stay? I wonder why all the things we think, I wonder, why are they all unknown? I wonder why we think that we are meant to be here, when in fact we are not. I wonder why we think that we are always meant to sacrifice the things we want no more. I wonder why we always want someone to complain to, I wonder why we always want somebody to be there. I wonder why it has no one, I wonder if it did lose its way. I wonder if it wants friends. Does it want to be alone?
