Life's Questions

To sleep and then perchance to dream, 
      the morbid truth's what lies beneath.
The question that remains is this...
      what waits beyond-be it torture or bliss?

When faced with life, another query looms...
      be those you love true friends or foes?
This answer shall remain unseen, 
      whilst you survive stuck in-between.

The truth of both will be revealed, 
      only after the day your heart goes still.
