SIT AND WONDER

I sit and wonder

What she is doing

How does she feel

Does her heart burn

Does her soul cry out

Do the tears run unchecked

From her empty eyes

I sit and wonder

What does she think

How will she go on

Does her mind go slowly

Does her body yearn

Do the thoughts leave her sleepless

Lying in an empty bed

I sit and wonder

What am I supposed to feel

How will I go on

Does this happen to everyone

Does everyone feel this pain

Do people truly survive

Living all alone

I sit and wonder

What am I supposed to do

How can I forgive

Does the pain ever fade

Does the hurt go away

Do I want to go on

I sit and wonder
