The Question

Some times family skeletons haunt us forever.

 Is it better to know or better to wonder
The answer could rip several lives asunder
The question unasked is never dormant
A question that causes me such torment
A nagging haunting mystery from the past
Just asking could make me an iconoclast
To ask or not that is the primary question
The unknown answer is ever an obsession
An embarrassing query preys on my sanity
Is it truly curiosity or just my male vanity?
What legacy if any will I leave behind?
It’s the question that ever upon my mind.
Will it linger and follow me eternally
The tormenting anguish over paternity.
