Poem using questions only (prompt) - 29 April 2026.
Questions I let slide under my chaotic mind
What was it when I first saw it? - a feeling or a choice?
Where was my heart? - on that sinking ship?
Did Rose fall for Jack the same way?
Did her soul tell her this is the best you can?
Who was that guy anyway? - A mountain that looks pretty from afar or a fleeting tent that seemed like home?
When did I first realize another cage-like situation? - was it relieving or were you trapped in my complications yet again?
Which of those colours exactly attracted me? - Was it a cold scheme or did I illude a warm undertone?
Why did it hold power to rule my mind even after it was gone? - Did I play tricks on my brain or did the universe play tricks on me?
How did I manage to handle it and manifest that into a possibility? It's my life now?
Did you know it back then? Could you have done it in May?
What was it that motivated you? - an obligation or passion?
Where was your brain? - on that short-lived ecstasy?
Is this how you make tiny mistakes and suffer huge obstacles?
Don't you think, sometimes, living for the future is better?
Who were you those days anyway? - A mindless wanderer trying something she always wanted to or a foolish woman who risked her next year?
When did you find yourself stuck at a barren island? - did that guilt come pouring in after the act or were you filled with regrets from the very start?
Which demons could you have possibly cursed? - The ones inside of you?
Why were you so out of line when for most of your life you called yourself a straight car that never crosses the pavement markings?
How did you manage to come out of it and manifest that into a possibility? It's your life now?
Did you know it back then? Could you have done it in May?
Yes, I did.
No, I couldn't have.
