WONDER
I WONDER WHY THE STARS DON'T SING AS THEY CROSS THE SKY, OR DO THEY? I WONDER WHY THE MOON DOESN'T WHISTLE AS IT PASSES BY, OR DOES IT?
I WONDER WHY I CANNOT TRUST A MAN EVEN THOUGH I SURELY TRY, CAN I? WHY DO THEY ALWAYS SAY I DON'T UNDERSTAND? YET I CAN.
I WONDER WHY THE BIRDS ALL SING AS IF THEY KNOW EVERYTHING, DO THEY? I WONDER WHY BEES FOLLOW THEIR INSTINCT, AND THEY DON'T THINK, OR DO THEY?
DO WILD ANIMALS UNDERSTAND JUST HOW VERY GRAND THEY ARE, DO THEY? DO SNAKES CRAWL AND HATE THE DUST, OR TAKE IT IN STRIDE AS THEY MUST, DO THEY?
HOW CAN PEOPLE TREAT EACH OTHER WITH LIES AND MORE LIES? HOW CAN THEY? MOST MEN WILL LIE TO GET WHAT THEY WANT, BUT SAY THEY DON'T, YET DO THEY?
THEY SAY THEY SHALL LOVE YOU EVER-MORE, YOU ARE THE ONE WHOM THEY ADORE. DO THEY? WHAT THEY SAY DOES NOT LINE UP WITH WHAT THEY DO. DOES IT?
THEY LEAVE WE GIRLS ALONE AND BLUE, YET SAY IT IS OUR FAULT, TOO. DO THEY? THEY SAY THEY SHALL CALL THIS VERY NIGHT, YET NO CALL COMES, IS THAT RIGHT? RIGHT?
THE WONDERING MAKES ME BLUE, YET I KNOW THAT THEY ARE TRUE. ARE THEY? WISH I COULD FIND AN HONEST MAN, ONE WHOM I COULD TRULY TRUST AND UNDERSTAND. CAN I?
