nothing else but my heart's desire [COLLECTION] | FINISHED

Searching - ORIGINAL POEM

Always searching,
As I'm lost in thought,
Always looking,
Though for what I know naught,
Always hoping to find,
As my mind drifts away,
Elsewhere I go,
To live out the rest of this day,
Always searching,
And wondering why,
Always looking,
As the pain rests inside,
Always hoping to find,
My reason to be,
Though try as I might,
Find it not I see,
Always searching,
As night turns to morning,
Always looking,
As red sky greets me like a warning,
Always hoping to find,
What lies beyond,
All the hopelessness I feel,
To my present by shackles I am bond,
Always searching,
Though I know it when I see it,
Always looking,
For the pen to guide me as it sees fit,
Always hoping to find,
The right words to convey,
As I drag myself to work,
Wishing only to return to fiction each day.
