A SEARCH FOR LOVE

Why is it
What we seek, seeks another
What we chase, runs further
Are we meant to go out for it?
Or we stay and let it
Look for us, Find us
Is it that we do it all wrong?
A place for prayer, we sing a song?
Everyone in a run
Searching for where they belong
How long
Before one tires and just rides along?
Sometimes it’s good
We fail to recognize it
Perhaps we are fools
We purposely sabotage it
Somebody get us tools
To correctly build it
Sometimes it’s bad
We cling, trying to keep it
Break us, to repair it
We often hear it’s not worth it
But does the heart listen?
When it yearns for it
Love
We all seem to know about it
Yet nobody capable to untangle it
Mysterious
Simple but sophisticated
A blessing. A curse.
