We as humans love and crave answers We search and search until we finally find What we think we have been looking for We need answers to the questions we have Like we need air to breathe It seems we cant live without them
But that begs the question Is it better to have the answers? Or is it better to let our mind wander And create what we want to hear?
I cannot decide which is worse To be trapped in the unknown With you mind spiraling Searching for anything to hold onto Anything that will make it all make sense Or is it better to know why someone walked away? Why someone suddenly began to question everything?
I don’t know to tell you the truth Because yesterday I sat lost Unable to focus on anything Or eat My mind racing Trying to think of every explanation for why You would need your space from me And then see you with everyone else Going all these places and doing all these things I start to question what I did If there is someone else If you lost feelings
So I wonder then, about today Knowing why Having the answers Is it better Knowing that you are scared we rushed things Scared we are in too deep And thats dangerous Scared that you weren’t ready Scared you don’t know how to be alone And I get all that I do But why make me fall in love Why do you realize this now After you said you can see forever with me After you make me fall in total and absolute love with you Why now do you think it is not right Why do you need space now After you said you don’t need a piece of paper to tell you We are married And in love Why? I beg you For any sort of answer Because the one you gave was not enough And I fear that every answer will never be enough They will only lead to more questions And I will forever be lost of why You would let us fall this hard Why you would tell me I am your soulmate If you did not want something serious Why Why would you do this to me And hurt me like this I have done nothing but love you And stand by your side And you betray me like this
So I ask you Wherever you are Reading this Think before you ask people Think if you can handle to answers to the questions You so desperatley want the answers to Take a minute and ask yourself If your heart needs to hear the words You so longingly want Because my dear Sometimes you cannot handle them So the universe leaves you confused And wondering Searing for a tiny string Hoping it will unravel the great mystery Of love And yet it never does And you are holding on to that string Tighter and longer than we all know you should
So I propose instead Let go of the questions And accept the word as it is Ignore that human desire That is so innate and deep inside of us And stop asking Stop begging And searching for these questions We all know we don’t want to hear the answers to And accept the unknown Is a comfortable place to be Whereas the string we cling to is painful and dangerous And look to the future With hope and excitement Because my dear, if it was love If it was as great as your heart imagined it was It will be answered in great time You will not be searching for answers As they will be in front of your face They will not be hiding between stolen glances And mixed signals They will not be lurking in the depths of the night Or angry text messages and dreaded calls They will not be tangled up in lies and deceit They will not be mixed in toxic potions that lead you to Places you were never meant to me They will find you in great time And the best thing you can do is not wait for them But rather live your life As if you have your life answered As if you have but not a single question about this universe Because the answers will find you They will shine brighter and more beautiful than The sun while it is coming up in the morning And casts a warm glow on the world Chase that glow The peace that surrounds you and the world When the day and young and new And full of possibilities and life
Do not wait through the night For answers that do not want you That will never find you nor please you Accept the world as it is And find that glow within yourself As it has always been
And if you do that You will no longer chase meaningless answers You will begin to chase the insatiable And ever addicting love of life
