Who? What? When? Where? Why?

Do your questions keep you up at night?

Who am I?

What am I?

When am I?

Where am I?

Why am I?

In my journey

through this cosmic sea,

though I try to simply

observe patiently,

I cannot help but wonder

every question ever thought.

I wait for them to dissipate

as I ask myself

if I will be trying until

my body rots.

Who is it

that is seeing what I see?

Who is it

that is observing me?

What is it

that they think of me?

What is it

that they think of at all?

When is it

that I will return to this home?

When is it,

that which exists outside of time?

Where is it

that I will find my answers?

Where is it,

the place where all boundaries dissolve?

Why is it

that the journey become the illusion?

Why is it

that we run from ourselves

when who and what I am

is where every single answer

originates?

Perhaps the real answer

lies in the questions?
