I can Google anything

Except the way you feel about me

I can read words but not minds

Is it strange that I want you to read mine

Discover what makes me laugh

Find out why I cry

Know all the thoughts I keep locked inside

Surf the sadness, my waves of pain

Let them knock you down, see how it feels

Claw at the sands of time, get up again

Reach for the shells with the silver lining

Toss away the rocks with razor sharp edges

I can ask Siri anything

Except the reasoning behind reality

A seed sprouts, beginning a journey

Then there's a blur of years and tears

Soft smiles, bright eyes,

Regrets & despair

And then it all disappears into the clouds

Rain washing everything away

Soiled souls and spoiled souls

Retire like old clocks

I can ask Alexa anything

Except how to feel nothing

Because the way we work

No matter what you do

It's going to hurt

I'll be completely honest with you

I'm not really good with words but

How else are people supposed to know

Who you are, how you are

Nobody knows you better than you

Nobody knows all of your moods

They might see the smiles hiding the hurt,

The tears of happiness running down your face

But they don't know why so

Let it all out

Tell them how you feel

And if you break a few hearts, it's okay

It's not like it's a big deal anyway

I can ask my parents

How they learned to manage,

To cope with this earth and all the damage

I can ask my friends

How some of them believe in

God, a man I have no faith in

I can ask any person

In any country on this planet

Almost any question I'd like

Resulting in a range of interesting answers

But why would I do that when

Some questions can't be answered,

Some hearts can't be healed

And sometimes some time has to be forgotten

Else this would be a very boring world
