To Some Extent

To some extent
My existence is being questioned
For the choices I've made

My dreams are being queried
For watching me sleep and still dream

My conscience is being crucified
For the horrible horrors I've accepted in life

My heart is being broken
For the unhealthy living and uncertainties

My soul seeks refuge
For all it witnessed and fear may consume me
