The ghost of a question hangs on by Always lurking, always haunting, always by my side With a beautiful face its feature has it tempts Then eats you, plays you again and again and again I don't know, I don't know I whisper It doesn't go away It grows bigger, bigger, bigger especially in the day Stop it, please stop. I don't know I cry Instead it laughs for you are not getting by It says "*Can't you see, What's real is this, accept if you must Only the future could see, the future is what you could trust But uncertainty it holds, it protects it dear You just have to wait, you'll have to hang on still Until then I'm here, until then you'd see me Until the future gives it judgement, I'll be laughing with glee.*" **"would anyone love me?"**
