We go through life
Trained to question,
To seek knowledge,
To understand.
But this isn't
An easy task
We have here on hand.
The truth hurts,
And facts aren't always pretty.
A simple "yes" or "no" response
Can bring you down
Quite quickly.
"Is it cancer?"
"Is he cheating?"
"Am I really wasting my life away, sulking in cheap pity?"
Questions like these
Cut beyond flesh and bone.
Their answers go deeper;
They penetrate the soul.
So here's a tip
As you journey and grow:
Don't seek answers
you don't want to know.
