I’ve questioned life for decades-
Perhaps there is no answer.
To the turmoil which consumes my soul-
Gnawing, like a cancer.

A need beyond description-
Words cannot justice do-
For the longing deep within me
Just to spend my life with you.

A longing just to hear your voice-
To feel your gentle touch.
To walk beside you as we age
I’d like that very much.

I’ve been too many places-
My quest has took me far…
The most tragic thing of all,
I don’t know who, or where you are.

I will know you if I find you-
And I will never look again-
Alas, with the onset of age
I fear my quest is vain.
