Short, Simple Question

just as the title sez, a question in the form of a poem, all about life...

Short, Simple Question

laughing to stop from crying
crying to stop from screaming
screaming because this reality has no meaning

hurting just to feel pain
pain pumping just to know your living
living just to die
no winning
like a circle this story has no beginning

with no beginning there is no end
so why is life so short?
if this sad story has no end
how is it that we are caught?

caught and stripped of life itself
of pride, dignity and grace
its then we know its all over
its now in life we have no place.
