    Lookng For Me

    Must I seek my whole life
    to discover who I am?
    Is it written I must
    always swim upstream?
    It seems I’ve spent my time
    wondering where or perhaps when,
    the answer will appear to life’s great scheme.

    Am I blind to the fact
    that my eyes are open wide?
    Is it written I must
    never find my course?
    There must be reasons why
    I have yet to find my place,
    but I do not know the meaning or the source.

    Must I look, always search,
    must I stumble once again?
    Am I lost forever
    to this endless breach?
    As I feel myself fade,
    disappear from my own view,
    will I always be there just beyond my reach?

    I sure hope you find yourself soon! : o )

    Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.
