IS THIS STUFF REAL?

Tell me
who cares
anymore?
If you are
or aren’t there anymore.
Because all we can believe
is in that which we can see.

Tell me
who cares
anymore?
If you are
or aren’t there anymore.
Its all about the sense of a touch
which stimulates us
so very much.
Is it because we or I
lack understanding?
Or is it because;
until I die and go to heaven
I have to learn to live
with my physical and mental
shortcomings,
while my soul and spirit
long,
in this present day,
to please you...

Such is my self imposed confliction.
