Array ( [sid] => 102935 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Looking For Answers [time] => 2005-08-07 18:04:22 [hometext] => I can't seem to answer these imponderables, can you? [bodytext] => If a lone tear drop drips down my empty, somber face, and noone is around to see it, does it make a difference?
If my heart aches from loneliness and despair, but I have no idea how to articulate it, will anyone care?
If I'm lagging behind because of unfinished business and regrets, would anyone help me catch up?
If a falling star streaks across a midsummer night sky, and noone makes a wish upon it, is it still magical?
If I'm hurting from the passing into history of a loving relationship, yet I prefer to be alone, has my heart really been broken?
If I can hear her whisper in my ear, yet she's nowhere around, am I really hearing her?
If my life carries on, but I share it with noone, is it still worth living?
If when this lonely, pitiful life expires I'm reincarnated into a happier more fulfilling life, would my sadness in this life have truly existed?
If from this day forward we didn't see eachother or hear eachother's voice, would we remember our history together?
If the answers to my questions never come, did I ever ask them to begin with?

very emotional such a lovely open peace. SO beautiful even in its sadness. You asked many great questions and made me sit to ponder

The answer is yes.
Great poem and very thought provoking. Some of your questions have been answered for me this year. I hope that gives you hope.

This really is an ispirational poem. And I think that the most beautiful part about the questions you ask (even if it's also the saddest) is that we may never know the answers or if the answers even exist. You've given the reader a lot to think about, which I believe makes a successful poem. Great write, keep it up

Your answers lie in die decisions you make, you make your life worth living or you take it. Answers you are looking for are inside the mirror of your own self esteem. Some things to ponder on ;).

your ponderings bought a small tear to my eye.......
beautiful thoughts and words, and your anguished questions I have to say, i always ask myself....

who knows the answers...maybe we arent meant to know.

Great write, loved reading it.

Peace and hope to you.
