magic 8 ball

someday he will ask questions about her
and what ifs about him

and seasons will pass
and different questions will be asked

and i will dance with how and why
and why not
and place a magic 8 ball in his lap

and his gaze will turn to the left and to the right
and his eyes will wander skyward
and peer deep beneath the ground

and more and more will come

and then finally one day they will start to subside
because one day he will start to understand

that some questions simply have no answers
