The Unknown

Swallowed or rescued by the unknown
Unknown that the unknown was unknown
In the dark about the time of day
In the dark full stop
Not hard to see but unable to
Not difficult to breathe but robbed of the luxury
Not tricky to feel but you just can't
The only thing known about the unknown is that
It can't be explained
In that way you could say it was love
Or pain
Or the reason we're here
Maybe that is the explanation it is shaped so;
?
It stands for "Why"
Or "Who" or "What" or "When" or "Where"
Nonsensical as you look at it
Or into it
Illogical as you feel how it feels
Or what it wants you to feel
Or if your feeling anything at all
