Curiosity, Is it a boon or a bane,
Will I drift down the wrong lane...
What is beyond the sky, what is under my feet,
After death, what fate is there to meet?
This feeling inside, is it fear or excitement,
Knowing the truth, will it bring doom or enlightenment...
Our universe, perhaps a mere toy on a higher being's shelf,
Do I know my people, do I know myself?
Is this all an illusion, is this all a dream,
Are the leaves all green, or is that just how they seem.
Is what we see different than what is,
What if an asteroid is headed our way, what if it won't miss.
Is the truth really the truth, or is it not,
Is fire cold and ice hot?
What is in the deep oceans, perhaps a lethal predator,
What if everything is in my control, I am my life's editor.
What really was, what will be
Its a mystery too great for us humans to see.
Is the truth hidden, is it right there.
I want to know everything, but should I dare.
What happens when I close my eyes at last, when there are no more words to share,
Is it god's abode that awaits me, or is it the devil's lair.
Will I merge into nothingness and be forgotten,
Will this body gifted to me, just lie in the ground rotten...
What if the truth that I seek, is not what I want to find,
What if the light of absolute knowledge ends up turning me blind...
What is reality? Does it exist,
Is this true vision, or am I behind a mist?
Does each moment matter, does everything have meaning,
Or is it the opposite, which side is the scale leaning?
So many possibilities, can one know them all?
Will the aliens be friendly, will we end up in a brawl?
Is the truth truly unfathomable, if so then do I really care,
Is this all just wild thoughts, is the truth even there?
