Questions!

Where did it all begin?
Where will it lead to?
Where does time go, and
Will it come back and haunt me, too?

What can possibly be worse
Than living in your own cage?
What can quench the thirst
Wrought by frustration, confusion and rage?

When was the last time
It didn’t feel like this?
When did I have anything to call mine?
When was I ever missed?

How soon is now?
How long is forever?
How close is here, how
Impossible is never?

Who am i?
Is this all I can be?
After time has passed me by,
Who am I supposed to be?

Why does the truth hurt?
Why does it have to?
Is there a cure for this curse
Called life that I’ve to go through?
