Knowledge

Answers, you say

I\'d be lucky if I asked

All the right questions 

Before life slips away

Defining that curious thought 

Without being taken by

The charms of present rewards

But life doesn\'t stop to rot

We do, for life\'s queries 

We pause, we dare

Not knowing how to sail

While standing still, on times\' ferry

Brave, frail.
