Questions

Get on with life,
they all said.
Stop shaking it
so hard, just
get on with life.
But isn't this life?
The questions
are there, is it
wrong to seek
for answers?
Are they concerned
for me, or just
frightened of
what I might find?
Questions make
people uncomfortable,
but not asking
them makes me
uncomfortable.
I am the questions,
and the questions
are me and, to
follow one's own
truth, is our task,
even if, in the doing
we upset others.
