I look around
And all I see
Is a big question mark
Staring back at me
Everything is stopped
As if I hit
Pause on the remote
Breath held in
Nothing else moves
Not even sure
What I want
Or how it should
Turn out
Relief and regret
Tinge the outcome
Either way
It lands
I just want to look away
And know
One way or the other
What it is
I see
