What do I need

I seem to carry unquenched thirst inside

An existential angst that is difficult to hide

A fire that constantly burns within me

A nebulous longing that threatens me with misery…

*

What am I missing, where can I find

Something to quieten my hyperactive mind

What goal, after all, do I need to achieve

So that some solace my mind can receive..

*

From looking outwards, I have changed to some extent

To search inside me is my focused intent

Despite being on this journey for some time now

Self-actualization has continued to evade me somehow

*

Perhaps the universe has for me a design

I should just patiently wait for a sign

I hope to discover my true calling one day

Until then I shall just amble along my way

  1. Your drawings, especially the one today, would make the most beautiful Christmas ornaments. Cut from paper or stamped on metal–they would be so pretty!
