Questions

Questions are the essence, of all I've come to know

Questions are what make me and enable me to grow

Questions have taught me that  you can never stop to learn

But questions have also caused me to yearn

I yearn for answers, the ones I can not recieve

I yearn for explanations, not to be deceived

I yearn to understand how this world came to be

If G-d's existed forever, then what's eternity?

Eternity scares me- the thought of forever

Because what is forever- how do things never

Just cease to exist off the face of the earth

How can it be that there's no end to it's birth

If humans all die, then what lies beyond?

Is there death after death or do we keep growing strong?

Must we exist forever and ever

If not on earth, then in the minds of whomever.

And if G-d knows what will be of us all

Then do we have choices really? 

Do they cause us to fall?

Or are we just living out what He's planned

Nothing will change who we are in the end.

And if G-d doesn't have needs

Why does He need validation?

That people believe in Him and His nation

G-d created us, but who created Him

How is it that He appeared on a whim?

Or existed forever

How is it He has no beginning or end?

Isn't that what the concept of time will demand?

Questions like these engulf me day and night

Questions consume me with wonder and fright

Questions like these cause my mind to freeze

Try to answer me if you please.

But if you attempt to contemplate the answers

You'll start to go crazy trying to define the word Forever.
