Always seeking, it seems to me,
searching for something meant to be.
All these years I’ve look around,
even yet it hasn’t been found
What is meant by this sirens song?
battering my ears, driving me on.

Why did I examine the stalking grounds?
Probe the hills and  watery sounds.
A will-o-wisp, it must be,
this very thing eluding me.
Am I exploring for a golden fleece?
or only fools gold within my reach.

As years past quickly, I give a sigh,
wondering belatedly if I passed it by.
Ignored in the rush to get somewhere,
did it sit patiently waiting there?
Now I’m afraid all to be found,
what waits for all in the ground

Hi, you know, the search is the same one I have. And I hope that you will find that which you seek, soon. Nicely descriptive.

Lifes journey is thus: simply to find ones self.

Well said.

Sometimes we find it, sometimes we don't
Just keep looking dear.

Nice write

Your searching has not been for naught, Logan, and even if you wanted, you could not stop, not now, not now.

Peace.

I think perhaps the things we search for often sit patiently awaiting when we are focused enough to see them. Perhaps this is true..perhaps not. I loved this, Sweet One. The messages and the hopes are ones you convey very well.
