NaPoWriMo Day 2: Questions


Day 2 : Prompt: to write a poem that  resists closure by ending on a question, inviting the reader to continue the process of reading (and, in some ways, writing) the poem even after the poem ends.

Trapped



Why does it happen again and
PC: borrowed from the internet
Then yet again?
Don’t know what to think
Fear claws through the soul
Singeing the heart
There is no rhyme or reason
Why is there no explanation?
The doubts, the pain keeps returning
There is no logic, No rationale
The questions keep rising
Their eerie echoes haunting
Searing through the heart
But Whom does one ask?
Who has the answers?
Groping in the darkness
Through never ending alleys
Along Life’s labyrinth
Running in circles, Hitting against walls
Seeking reprieve, seeking solace
Where should one go?
Where does one look?
