Question Mark

I think I am like this question mark not knowing which way to go; what is my spark? Life can be confusing, tumbling, and circling in my mind never knowing what to find. So when I see this question mark, I see me.

This is quite insightful. Forgive me if this sounds nitpicky but I would love it if the title was the actual ? symbol, the literal mark of the questioner. Granted that may turn people off who are more used to seeing actual letters. you could always flip the mark upside down to gain a different perspective, see if your questions look any different in a new light.

Personally I think the question mark adds some flavor to poetry... People use to make fun of me for doing so but I see its becoming a trend. Enjoyed this poetry and have a great day.
