Just Asking Why

This past of days gone by
Left to wonder, why?
We just stick out our thumb
And catch a ride

Left in the dark
Never understanding
This presence that lingers over us
The black hand the grabs onto us

Never letting go
Just to find another ride
Just asking why?
What we've done
does it really matter

It'll just wash away
Like the sands of time
As the water trickles from the glass

We look at the reflection

Of broken glass

 

As I lay in the shade

I hold out my thumb

Looking for a ride

I realize

 

It's time to carve my own path

In this world of wonder

It rains with thunder

Just asking why?

    I really like this work, it seems to almost be echoing or as if it is hollow and capable of echoes. A very interesting and thought prokoving poem, good luck.
