I try to understand the reasons...a futile task

the energy it takes to wonder why

easily wears me down

then i try another approach

and wonder rather than question

semantics one may argue

but not so fast say I...

paths cross

some run parallel

yet inevitably

the lesson

belongs to one

then the other

sometimes not realizing

the flutter

the impact

the changes that occur

with merely the blink

of the eye
