In Search of Love

In search of love, through shadow gone
Caught 'up', then faraway
Cross galaxies, losing no time
On worlds eons away

Blazing a trail no meteor
Could ever hope to match
Pass through the timeless doors of om
That never knew a latch,

Outdistancing the speed of light
My thoughts were never seared
By all the suns I bounced upon
Through millions of our earthly years.

Then resting on a mountain top
By darkness never touched
I recognized a still small voice
The one I'd longed for oh so much;

Then that is when my only love
Revealed Himself to me
And welcomed me into His world
For all eternity.

This is such a lovely poem, a poem on the love of God, no matter wherever you search you are not going to find a love like God and I really enjoyed the imagery you have put in it, faster than speed of light, Einstein will disagree as he was used to believe that nothing is faster than light, good luck and thanks for reading my poem
