Why?

Jcamp
Jcamp • 11 followers

Why does it tick? The clock I mean. Why is that the girl over there can never have a good dream?

Why do we do things that are wrong? Why do some people feel like they need to belong?

Why do we sleep at night? Why do some little kids need a night light?

Why do we do things that cause ourselves pain? Why is it considered a bad thing to be insane?

Why is it good to know fake from real? Why do we need to be hurt in order to heal?

Why do some of us go to church, but don't believe? Why do we trick and deceive.

Why can't I go a day without hearing a lie? Why do so many people ask why?

I wonder about lots of things Big and small I often have questions Can't answer them all I wonder why all the birds Fly and migrate. Why some of the world delicacies Are really ever ate.

Where Are We?

Somewhere between love and hate. Somewhere between peace and violence. Between random and fate. Between anger and calm. Somewhere between the ocean and the land. Between safety and harm.

Past And The Future

I am the past and the future. I wonder whether people ever wanted to go back to the past, And change whatever they regret. I hear cries and laughter, I see curiosity is people's minds.

Can The World

Can the world be a better place. Could it have a prettier face. Does religion help or hinder. Does ginger taste like ginger. Is the colour red really red. Are dead people really dead.

Questions

Questions... I have plenty. Like... Who created the galaxy. Was it God. Or atoms and molecules. What if the universe was sat on a star In another worlds' skies.

Probably Not

Could a fire burn through the cold. Would a young voice sing for the old. Can a sound be seen through an eye. Or a truth be found in a lie. Could bravery rise from the fled.

Can You…

I'm right here. Where are you. I know my place. Do you. I'm talking. Are you listening. I'm hearing. Are you talking. I'm believing. Can you. We are the same. Humans alike. My mind is mine.
