Ask

A simple, short poem written in the fall of 2004.

How long will this go on?

This ache in me

Will it ever leave?

And give me peace

Will I cry inside everytime I see your face?

Then relish the feel of your touch

How will I live?

Not knowing how you truly feel

Who speaks the truth to me?

I don't know what to believe

What is real?

Their blunt rumors

Who can I believe?

Your questioned answers

Why do you shy from me?

Your kisses draw me in

What is this void?

A glance over fills me

What am I in your life?

My existence fades in and out

What do I have to look forward to?

The Fates refuse to answer
