A Simple Question

All I asked was, "Are you happy?"
She sat quietly for a few seconds,
and I noticed tears in her eyes.
I asked, "Why are you crying?"
She did not know why.

I thought about human frailty,
how delicate we are.
A simple touch could bring alive,
a simple word could tear down.
I did not know why.

The universe within us,
the chaos and peace that coexists.
It was all too great to be a simple chance.
I thought about God,
and how God thought about us.
