An old man, burdened by years and the toll of hard labor, queries the void,
“What has all this been for?”
A young woman, embarking on her college journey, pleads with the unseen,
“Why must this path be so hard?”
A middle-aged businessman, facing yet another job interview, questions his worth,
“Why must I endure this again?”
A preteen girl, stung by the ridicule of those she once called friends, whispers to the shadows,”
Why can’t I find true companionship?”
A convicted man, facing the reality of more time behind bars, looks pleadingly at the bailiff,
“Can’t I catch a break?”
A lone woman, surrounded by the same four walls, asks the faces on her TV,
“Will love ever find me again?”
A child, seated on the curb, gazes into his dog’s eyes and yearns,
“Why can’t my life hold more?”
As twilight settles or dawn breaks, an answer comes,
From a source seldom sought and least expected,
Whispering to each heart with a promise,
“I am not done with you yet.”
