How do you live in the face of death?
How do you know you will live to fulfill your promises of another day?
Why was this world made to keep the curious away?
Why is it that if I question my lifespan, I am solely torturing myself?
Which is better, the answer or the affirmation?
Why must I live in question?

The truth is,
You live in the face of death everyday.
You live knowing you will die,
But the not know keeps us alive.

The truth is, the curious are too dangerous for their own good.
The eternal life answer is unlivable.
It is the one question that will spiral you with an answer.

I must live in question to live at all.
That is the rule of life.
If I chose the answer, I will not be given.

I will always live in question.
