Who Am I?

I am the question mark 
at the end of prayers yet to be answered 
and life's last breath

I am the indecision 
of a silent breeze, always unsure of 
when the wind might overtake it

I am the absence 
between yesterday's promises 
and tomorrow's regrets

I am the homesickness
for a place I cannot remember 
nor be certain of its existence

I am the word
on the tip of your tongue
you can't remember

Who am I?
