POETRY: “I Have Some Questions”

 


By Kaya Miller

 

I have some questions.

Why does my sleep evade me…

Night arrives, nothing!

Why do feelings leave?

I enjoy the numbness but,

I need to feel things.

 

When will work finish?

Procrastination loves me

Never leaving me

 

If I let you in,

Will the pain follow your words?

Your embrace? Your care?

I have some questions

About everything there is

Because I am scared.

 

It’s the unknown;

the cold, lonely walks of life

that stir in my brain.

 

I wander through places

In the dreamscape of my mind,

in the life I live.

I have some questions.

For I am curious

Forever questioning.

 

Now, you may question.

Walk with me, on this trail,

To find the answers.
