Questions

What do you do

When the sky begins to fall?

When the fire turns so cold?

When the earth turns to ice

And the sun in to the moon?

What do you do

When glass hearts begin to shatter

Casting a million rainbow shards

All across the floor?

When smiles refuse to appear?

When happiness denies you

Saying, you're not good enough?

How does it feel

When tears freeze and colors your world

Blood red?

How does it feel

To have the icy cold blade push in to skin

Numb, and unfeeling?

How does it feel

To have no feeling,

No pain

No sadness

No happiness

No joy

No ecstasy

No wonder

No nothing....

No feelings at all?

What can we do

When all color fades

Turning the world in to an old black-and-white photo

Propped up against the wall,

Staring at us with unseeing eyes?

How do we run away

When we're chained to the floor?

How do we hide ourselves

When our whole body and soul

Have been exposed to the world?

How do ask all our questions

When everyones ears are closed....
