[hometext] => it seems to be the question we'll always ask
[bodytext] => WHY? It seems so many times through life This question is the one we often ask It rears its’ ugly little head Causing us to ponder the meaning of our task It plays no favorites Whether it is good or bad We still ask the question Whether the outcome is happy or sad Is it our search for knowledge? Or our attempt at holding onto control What drives this desire to know? That we so closely need to patrol Sometimes we know the answer Before the thought crosses our mind Other times we search for more justification That’s what we are really trying to find Facing this question can hang over us Like a dark cloud that allows no light to shine It can drive you near madness As you try to row it all up in a neat little line It seems it will never elude us As it touches every aspect of our lives Never really any closer to enlightenment Our hearts and souls it strongly ties Why did he or she and this or that Happen or act this time or way How many more times will I Ask this before the end of my day Only time I guess really stands a chance At fully disclosing the complete and total measure We can only hope that the scale is tipped less Towards misery and more in tune with pleasure Yet no matter what the answer We’d most likely shell out our final dime If it meant a clear meaning Somewhere in and during our time All I know for sure Is that tomorrow we will ask again why Despite our efforts it will always remain Regardless of what we try That’s the one question that makes us Both Human and Divine Don’t forget when you lock up That you be sure to turn off the sign We must trust that it all somehow Makes sense for us and what we need As from that burden we may never Be able to truly be freed So as another moment passes With another outcome and result sealed The answer to our questions Why May never be clearly revealed. Hold on to your faith in the hope All Things happen for a reason That it will be understood In its proper Time and Season JD Wright 01/30/2010 [comments] => 1 [counter] => 250 [topic] => 48 [informant] => jdwright [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 20 [ratings] => 4 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
