Day 11: Questions


So many questions
Left unanswered
Chews away at my life source
Like lung cancer.
Vultures of the times
Scavenging on the carcass of an institution,
A promise deceased in its prime
Deceived by the stillness of confusion.

Too many answers
All boycotting the question
Like lethal potion
Sipped into a word of consolation;
The promise of rain
On a field drowned by flood.
An introduction of pain
In the spilling of a bit of blood.
