Contemplating Continuing
Why should I keep going?
Why should I work so hard for pain and suffering?
What is there to gain?
Wisdom? Completion?
That's not going to help, not any more
Not when there is no longer anyone to share it with
Not when I’m all alone in a world overflowing with mindless life
So tell me why I have to stay in a world that had nothing left to find
Nothing left to discover or share
No words heard when I try to help make this place better
Now tell me why I am needed in such an un-wanting place?
Because if you don't I will leave and never come back
