    Questions

    Do you ever cry from laughing
    then laugh because you cried?

    Did you ever trust someone
    then find out that they lied?

    Do you wish that you were different
    then do what others do?

    Did you think you had a lot of friends
    then find you had afew?

    Did you ever help a friend in need
    then expect it in return?

    Did you think you knew it all
    then find you have a lot to learn?

    I think we're all guilty of thinking we have things figured out... then that realization comes and we're left with all these crazy questions that really have no answers.

    Truth is the hardest thing to turn away from...the enjoyable of life is finding answers to these wonderful questions that constantly arise...The beauty is the acceptance of these answers and building on them....I really enjoyed the patient truth in thy poem.

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
