Questions and Answers Within?

© Jaimey Perham 04/16/2010

I dig deep within myself to look for the truth

The more I dig the farther away I get from the proof

So I look around at the scene about me, but things still seem aloof

Invisible puppets pulling heartfelt strings, magical branches from mystical trees

But there is a deep love somewhere near pulling me closer to thee

Can I trust my heart, my raw emotions, that I cannot see?

I only see her face on a movie screen that races through my head

But strange noises continue from someone who might want me dead

I am not afraid to die, rather afraid to live

To fully commit to that love that electrifies, takes and gives

But what to do, I am truly at a crossroad

I need to make contact, and finally come inside, out of the cold

When I do come face to face with my maker of love

Will it be a death breath enemy of evil and hate that flies above?

Or will it be a flying warm embracing friend of pure peaceful white doves

I only ask for the entire truth may it be good or bad when push comes to shove

Even a few white lies I will take with that heavy burden of a stock

So as the gold second hand ticks closer to twelve on the old wooden grandfather clock

The final countdown is at hand to these questions and answers within the swarming flock

The resulting actions I now leave in the hands of my masters of shock

Or maybe it is only the beginning to these questions and answers that lie across this metal dock

No, the consequences are not yet written nor do I hear the custom knock

Though The Iron Gate door is now finally open, steel bolts unlocked

The only thing left to do is wait for a sign, or signs, and stay strong as a natural granite rock…
