Elisha Hymon-Kilpatrick Poet Rhyme

Quest For Life

Quest For Life



I‘m on the road to Hell
Yet Heaven is just a glimpse away
I'm fighting a battle to win
Yet I'm losing everyday
God, I'm looking for direction
A safe haven from the storm
A man, a woman, with outstretched arms
To embrace me and keep me warm
I'm looking for a way out
A place I can run away to
When my problems and the world’s get to be too much
And my chances for survival is few
I'm looking for a love
I can't live without
Someone I wouldn’t mind spending the rest of my life with
Someone I could write a book about
I'm looking for a life
With limitless boundaries
I want to look into the eyes of the Devil
And let him see the Hell I see
I’m looking for time
For it goes so fast
I'm looking for that perfect moment
That lives forever in the present and past
I'm looking for words
That won't cut as deep as a knife
I'm looking for completeness
I'm looking for my quest for life
