I'M Looking For You
I'm Looking For You
By Herold Osmond Owoseb
I have longed to see the sea but never felt the breeze
I have been in the desert but never felt the heat
Back and forth I go around
searching for a place of refuge and shelter
I'm empty inside but have plenty outside
Have a lot to live for
And little to wish for
Yesterday, today the emptiness dictates
I've done phenomenal things; but still haven't found the joy
Have seen many places but still haven't reached my destination
Mountains I've climbed and seen the top
But still that void remains
Now I know that only you can fill my emptiness
A space been here for too long
And for you my heart keeps on; hoping to find rest
I've found myself but I'm looking for you
