An Unanswered Question: Repost from an old blog

As we walk on, away from the light,

Idle conversation…not the agenda tonight

Searching within me, for solutions that evade

Questioning decisions and why they were made.

You’d think that to move on is to erase the past,

Little did you know about memories that will never cease to last.

Dissonance is unnerving, and its what you fight

And until you gain equilibrium, there is no respite.

The sand on your feet is cool, the sea not quite calm,

But calmer than the sea inside you, that threatens to break loose.

There is more being said than you intended to be said

It’s a new feeling, saying anything that comes to your head

Head…? Or heart..? or does it matter?

As heavy words pour forth, with the ease of chatter.

But yet there’s something of the sea that you hold back,

You’d say it..if only you knew what it were

Because you’re not afraid….not tonight,

There’s something about the Now that would make anything all right

The light is closer now, reality close at hand,

Closer gets closer as you make your way on the sand.

The spell is broken, the moment fleets by

And you realize that even if you solve everything, there never ceases to be a Why...
