I Know Not (revised)
I know not all the answers,
to questions in this life.
I know not simple solutions,
on how to curb the strife.
I know not how to cure,
a love that will not heal.
I know not how to hoist,
an anchored heart of steel.
I know not how to cease,
praying for a friend.
I know not how to stop,
a tempest that won't end.
I know not how to return,
a voyage torrent in sin,
I know not how to contain,
this raging storm within.
I know not how to whirl,
from a certain death.
I know not how to smile,
gasping one last breath.
I know not any grounds,
why life must remain grim.
I know not how to give up;
I know how to swim.
