Questions

How could life be so sweet but oh so
bitter?
How can one rest without sleep or a life of 
glitter?

Am I afraid or just afraid to know the 
truth?
Does the truth really involves what’s 
true?

The tears are for happiness and the laughs seem to be
for sorrow
every fear I’ve faced reflect on teaching 
me tomorrows

Was I born into this world for myself or for the sake
of others?
Is my family really my family? Is my mother really my
mother?

When does reality really hit you? Is it when you die or when 
you succeed?
Many questions confuse me so my heart will continue to
bleed!
