About Someone

Doubting Thomas

In every tale, you seek the flaw,
Skeptic's gaze, questioning law.
In every claim, in every view,
You probe what's false, what's true.
Through your doubt, truths emerge,
In your skepticism, wisdom's surge.

In every promise, suspicion reigns,
Skeptic's mind, dissecting chains.

You unravel hopes, like a dream.

In your skepticism, ground's unbound.

About Someone

Skeptic’s Gaze

In the doubt of your gaze,
Lies a reason that does amaze.
Each question you pose, each truth you test,
Turns my thoughts to the very best.
Your skepticism, a guiding light,
Turns the darkest night bright.
With every doubt, every cheer,
You make the uncertain clear.
Your inquiry, a gentle wave,
In your presence, I am brave.
In your questions, I find my way,
To discern the night from day.
Forever questioning, forever true,
In your doubts, life renews.
