The Wontry Winter Of Why Poem by Catman Cohen

In this hope
Where nobody survives

In this place
Where babies wither
And die

All I ever wanted to know
All I ever wondered
About

Disappeared upon your kiss
That last illusion
In
The Wontry Winter of
Why

Fever spreads
Takes another
Victim

And the castle
Can't protect you

Can't
Stop the slide

The race never
Ends

A futile search for
Infinity

In places that
Eat you
Alive

Pass the salt
Place it inside
The wound

Try to
Smile

While your blood burns
Blisters
Within its
Tortured
Tomb

Now

Ask the question

Where did it go?

Ask the question

A million times

And
You
Will
Never
Know

In this poem
Where thoughts melt
Before they
Concretize

In this life
Where true meaning
Is rarely
Realized

All I ever wanted to know
All I ever wondered
About

Disappeared upon your kiss
That last illusion
In
The Wontry Winter of
Why
