The Endless Search

I wandered around searching for you,

My eyes sweeping the faintest of the worlds corners.

Finding you seemed unfeasible,

But that was what I desired the most.

Questions bothered my mind,

But you were the one with the answers.

I travelled the world,

But couldn’t find you.

I asked every ears that I passed by,

But nobody ever heard of you.

I looked into every eye for you,

But nobody ever saw you.

I couldn’t just give up,

For you are the one with the answers.

I walked alone in the darkest of the shadows,

Even in the brightest of the daylights

But you kept going away.

Hope was all I had,

Faith was all that kept me going.

There came a time I wanted to be dead,

My head whispered that was the only way.

I bid adieu to the world,

Excited a propos meeting you.

Bereavement for loved ones would be easy,

I didn’t heed much about them even when breathing.

Death was like a long lost mother,

In her arms I felt calm and undemanding.

She said I am in the right path,

The path that will guide me to you.

I was happy,

For once I was where I wanted to be.

The waiting felt too long to be true,

But her lullaby soothed my senses.

There was no space to move,

Or was I being indolent to even do.

Voices whispered in the distance,

But the lullaby trounced other sounds.

At last the time came,

The lullaby fading and the whispering annoying.

Light showered upon me,

And the tranquillity vanished.

Pain hit me like lightning,

Unbearably I cried for the mother.

I was away from the death again,

Back into the world where I searched for you.

I cried for your arms,

As loud as I ever could.

And then you held me,

Closer to your heart and soul.

Calmness warmed me once again,

Yet again I was where I wanted to be.

Slumber was pulling me away,

I gently glanced into your eyes.

And at hand was what I searched for,

God was in your eyes.

My search had finally ended,

Right where I began.
