"My Life" I used to have things to say. I used to have answers. But the longer I live, the fewer Things I have to say, Answers I have to give. All I have left are questions. Why? Why me? What did I do to deserve this? Why do you like me? Why do you care? Why do I care? Why should I care? Each one valid in its own right. Each one a question, searching, Trying to find the answers To why I Exist. Many people have answers to this. Many people suggest that I'm harder On myself than I am. Perhaps. Then again, I KNOW me, and They just know The masks I wear. I am one person, Yet many. There is one true me, And none. I exist in a plane of life Which confuses me. One in which there is No stable point No help Little enjoyment And much pain. Yet I manage to live. Why? The never answered question. I cannot die: That is determined. I have a purpose as yet unfulfilled. Yet, what is it? I know not. Would that I could know, So it could be done. Maybe it's a continuing purpose. Then why can't I die? What is there about me that is so special? I know not. Do you? Perhaps, yet you cannot tell me. I cannot live, I cannot die. I exist in the world Of purgatory. Too good for hell. Too bad for heaven. I am somewhere in between, And must atone for my sins. Someday maybe I shall. But today, Today, Today I must bear my cross And continue on this life of nothingness.
