No Questions, No Doubt

Self-destructive?Couldn't handle the love & happiness?Too good to be true?Just 
had to lose faith.Asked too many questions.Without doubt?Risky.Got too many 
answers.Unbelievable,illogical,unacceptable, anymore answers?,options?Force-
feed my mind?No!Questions?Why must I try?Do I know you?Just my imagination 
running away,Deja-vu,or illusion?All true?True!?Can't begin to express how 
much I regret I failed to  recognize your sacrificial smile.Your smile for mine?
Never see me smile now,Cry later?Predict it,Stormy weather?Expected,No!Once 
written predicted!Gloomy,Dark,Cloudy thoughts will reign,minds will be flooded in 
emotional pain,and tears will fall like the cold winter rain.Suddenly slip,slipping, 
slipped into darkness.No Sunshine?Sunshine?!Ain't no sunshine!Just clouded 
minds,Two-sided, vicious,circular traps.Twisted thoughts the building blocks of 
an inescapable maze..Too much!Can't think ,can;t help but think!What I thought 
was ain't.Why?!Why not?Who said that?!Can't tell,speak on it or understand 
crazy.Accept it,no choice,no exceptions accepted!Please help me to help you 
trust and believe,and without doubt,No questions in the unseen..So 
simple.Suddenly the unknown becomes known without even knowing.No doubt!
No love without pain,and without loss,no gain,no sunshine without rain,born 
sinners,not saints, we all play the game.and when left alone is  it right to try and 
place blame?My crazy life most certainly given flavor,seasoned,and marinated in 
original sin.The crazy truth is I forgot what it feels like to be sane!Now what was I 
saying?rite riite...A moment of silence please.Now raise your right hand and 
repeat after me,I swear to tell the truth,the whole truth and nothing but the truth so 
help me please.Sworn in the faithful pursuit to serve and protect just us, with 
mutual trust.No doubt!Now sit and stand witness to the death of 
innocence,sincereley,for all to see expressed eternally with a tattooed tear
