Faithless

searching forward, dying, waning
looking for someone worth saving
always stopping, never trying
infinitely circumscribing
flowing forward, back, and forth
frivolously seeking scores
inward, outward, all around
jumping up at every sound
lost while searching, price is steep
now, i lay me down to sleep
