How do we know

When's the best time

To do certain task 

Or letting it undone 

 

How do we know 

Who're the right people 

Should we judge the speech 

Or let their silence speak 

 

How do we know 

When to let go 

When to hold 

There's a thin line demarcating both 

 

How do we know 

When to plan 

When to unplan

Everything that's meant, will be done

 

How do we know 

What's the next move 

Is it forward, ahead 

Or it's backwards retreat 

 

How do we know 

What the hearts hold 

Intentions poor and soiled 

Or a lovely heart to keep 

 

How do we know 

Anything that we need to know 

And all that's meant to be unknown 

For reasons better than we can describe easily,
