In a state of disrepair...

0 posted 2006-08-07 02:22 PM



When is the moment
said to have passed?
Is it before or after
breath mists on the glass?

Are you the drink poured first
or the one consumed last?
Does midnight start morning
and has the night passed?

Is sugar sweet or just
bitterness in reverse?
Is life the show or just
a chance to rehearse?

Is a whisper a shout
if you listen right?
Is scorn a cry for help by
those who can't fight?

Is pondering thinking
or just murdering time?
Is there a script for me
and do I have a line?

Are there answers
to the questions
that I just asked?

Deeply profound, and phrased to perfection.
The answers so few, to many a question.
When faced with so much to ponder and cope,
the best we can ask for, is endless hope.
