Answers

Walk past our first real home,
memories stroll to then roam.
How does happiness just fade?
Was that time a masquerade?

Every question calls another,
each new thought expands much further.
Ponder on the reasons why,
no response will satisfy .

Curiosity takes over,
hopeful heart in need of closure.
Releases every unknown,
doubts all answer that are shown.

Constant voice asks who?, what?, where?
calling for unwanted cares,
opens up various doors,
resolutions search for more.

When will inquiries just stop?
How could self doubt quickly drop?
By believing wishes blown,
trusting inner sacred zones.

Wave goodbye to this old place,
true love never needs to chase,
feel so bright and good inside,
acceptance expands joy wide.
