If I reach out,
It evades me.
If I clutch,
It slips away.
If I seek,
It eludes me.
If I chase,
It runs away.
If I glimpse it
It disappears
But
If I forget,
It trips me up.
If I close my eyes,
It is all I see.
If I don’t want it
It is with me.
If I push away,
It surges back.
If I ignore it
It is all there is.
