In Search Of

In Search Of

Battling to mend unwanted love
expressed with extreme sincerity
Hope may never see light above
nor anguish throbbing intensely

Spirit a corroded chain enwraps
defied fear as moments elapsed
The wish of being loved entraps
gateway to tranquility collapsed

Sought infusion for weary veins
eager to enter the unopen door
Staunch determination remains
until I see what I am looking for

I feel it. The heart is a lonely hunter. Lasting love and fulfillment will remain elusive if one invests their hopes on the milk of human kindness. Goodness can be camouflaged, hard to identify.

Anselmo, you've got flow! AB Flow. Unrequited love, or just hoping to reconcile, easier said then done, we've all been there, less the lucky ones. Belated applause. Love this! ,) FAV
