The Search

I walk through the woods with eyes fixed,

The dark leaves block the view, I move ahead with all thoughts mixed!

I have been looking for something since long,

I have been trying to know where I exactly belong!

With thoughts profound,

I know the search knows no bound.

The search has begun,

Now there is no other way but to see the light of the sun!

In the darkness of the night,

I know I have to find the star bright!

The restlessness is seeping in,

The search of that something is now getting in!

I know the question I have,

Will find answer if on the vision I thrive!

The purpose of life has taken a meaning,

The quench wouldn’t rest, until the desire sees some bearing!

While walking across the brook,

I caught a glimpse of myself in which I had a frenzied look!

The bridge across the water,

Brought me to myself closer!

I have been looking for the true me,

The self that can set me free!

The mind now knows without inhibitions,

That I need to live without pretentions.

The life which screams and tells me,

Eureka! This is time to set you free!

I know it is me and not the shadow,

I have a grip over myself and know the direction to follow.

In the search, now I take a sigh and say - I found myself!
