Days spent in thought
     points to ponder
in age old quest
for answers    to life.

This journey taken
following of paths to new horizons
yet seemingly always reaching
the same destination, repeatedly.

What is right,
        what is wrong?

Ruminating decisions
while traveling circles
of endless emotional pulling
        to the past,
into the future, then back
only to see moss growing
on the same tree, repeatedly.

Dreams fade into day
until time can no longer tell
difference from night to day,
the same question haunts, repeatedly.

What is and isn't real
     or is reality merely a state
of illusion and mind?

it's made me who I am...

it is what it is...
as ever was,
and ever will be,
unconditionally so.

Donna, I have read this several times this morning because I too ask and have no answers. I guess we just need to go along doing the best we can

I really liked this; good job.

Hugs, Marti
