Challenge of the Week CIX
Was that a Question? Begin your entry with a question. Perhaps it's one you know the answer to, and we too will know by the end of our reading. Perhaps it's something you barely fathom an answer for, and will ponder via the pen. You can write anything you want, so long as it begins with a question. Fiction of non-fiction, poetry or Prose.

Do I Know You?

Do I know who you really are, I search your eyes for the truth; do you mean the words you say, or are you wasting away my youth?

Can I believe your heart beat, would you die for me, are the tears you cry, ones I can only see; would your blood flow red for me?

Do you pretend when your with me, do you act differently around everyone else; which one of you is real, would you show me your true self?

Can I believe your heart beat, would it stop for mine; will you shed the cloak you wear, adorn your armor when it’s time?

Throw yourself upon your sword, show death your face; would you show honesty if it would save me from disgrace?

Do you want to be with me, or am I only a place for you to stay; I look down to watch you sleep, wondering who you’ll be today? A knight, a king, or your evil twin, it’s been so many years, when did this battle begin?

Will you slay the dragon that hovers over my tower, protect me from the flames, take away it’s power? Will you fight for my kingdom, protect my castle walls, keep me out of danger, catch me when I fall?

Do I know who you really are, will you vow to show me in my youth; or will I forever wonder, never to know the truth?
