Explanation

If an explanation was possible,
Would it only serve to ruin
This beautiful form of art?

Poetry stores and keeps
And tries to explain
Feelings and the unexplainable.

How were you that week?
What is love?
How does sadness work?

Questions that don't have answers
Use poetry to guide seekers
Until the unexplainable is explained.
