Painted Dreams

If I stay,
what drives my day?
Who paints my dreams?
Who writes my plays?

If I go,
who will take my path?
Who will love your soul?
Who will shade thy wrath?

If I linger,
who brightens my spirit?
What shall you offer
and how should I rear it?

If death sleeps among us
What depth does it call?
Does it lay waste to the sorrow
Or do nothing at all?

Some pretty deep thoughts here. I feel as though you gathered and presented them with efficacy, as they've left an impression upon me. The uncertainty is what captures the feel, aesthetic, and emotion, to me, anyway.

Thank you for your insight. I found this in my notebook from last September. I almost forgot about it. I have random notebooks strewn about - never know what I�ll find.
