    #filterlysspoetry: "the answer to the unknown."

    i don’t need concrete answers

    to all the questions

    that keep me up at night.

    i’ve come to know

    that there are complex things

    we’re simply not meant to know.

    so i’ve learned to put my faith

    in the greens and blues

    that paint the body of

    our sweet mother earth;

    in the sobering thoughts

    i find at the bottom

    of my whiskey glass;

    in letting you give my

    teary eyes

    and onion-cutting hands a break

    so we can slow dance

    in the middle of the kitchen

    on a monday night.

    i find my answers every day

    in the greens and blues.

    in the empty glasses.

    in you.

    mostly you.

    i think maybe you’re the answer

    to every question i’ve ever had.

    -----------------------------------

    *Fun fact: I came up with the line, "I think maybe you're the answer to every question I've ever had," a while ago. I recently used a variation of it in another blog post, but I wanted to use it in a poem, so there ya have it.
