i dug,dug and dug deep,
it could not be found anywhere,
i flew the sky limits,
it still was not there,
i swam ocean depths,
yet i could not reach its depths,
i talked to millions,
it mystified me still further,
seers,sages,saints and philosophers,
could not get me anywhere near,
commoners said they lived with it,
yet did not know where it was,
hopelessly placed as I was,
"life" itself walked up,
one fine day,
and said,
you will know me where "I" am,
when you are well nigh dead.
