Poetry: Soul Search
by Liam
Embrace the shadow to search the night,
My hungry soul now seeks the light.
Amidst the void of this lost dream,
I find a flash, a star that gleams.
Embrace the shadow, through night I roam,
My hungry soul seeks the light to own.
Amidst the void of this elusive dream,
I find a flash, a star that dares to gleam.
Between gnarled woods and mountains tall,
This search for meaning never stalls.
My steps are a quest, on a pilgrimage divine,
The inquisitive thirst is my soul’s design.
Between gnarled woods and mountains tall,
This ceaseless quest for meaning calls.
My steps, a pilgrimage divine,
The inquisitive thirst, my soul’s design.
Amongst ancient tomes and thoughts and verse,
I seek truths, a quest that’s first.
Seek I in temples, in mosques, and church spires too,
The essence of being, my soul requires you.
Amongst ancient tomes, thoughts, and verse,
I seek profound truths, a quest diverse.
In temples, mosques, and church spires too,
The essence of being, my soul requires you.
We laugh, we dance, and tomorrow’s tears,
A soul needs meaning to calm its fears.
It’s the fleeting moment, a lifetime weaves,
Our quest eternal, this heart believes.
We laugh, we dance, and face tomorrow’s tears,
A soul craves meaning to allay its fears.
Within the fleeting moment, lifetimes weave,
An eternal quest, my heart believes.
With my every breath, a glimpse I find,
This purpose of my existence is entwined.
Through the embrace of love in a moment’s grace,
My soul’s hunger found its place.
With each breath drawn, a glimpse I find,
My purpose entwined, with love aligned.
Through the embrace of grace in moments dear,
My soul’s hunger finds its sanctuary here.
It’s the vast expanse of time and space,
I search, I seek, I dream, I embrace.
A soul’s yearning for meaning never wanes,
Forever embarks on life’s unending games.
Across vast expanse of time and space,
I search, I seek, I dream, I embrace.
A soul’s yearning for meaning never wanes,
Forever embarks on life’s unending planes.
