Searching

We all have a need to be wanted Some find the love for which they are searching Others take something less And end up with a lot of hurting Life has no guarantee to give us our desires We search for the missing feelings Ending up wondering what we had missed Not getting anything that is even appealing Wanting love is not a guarantee That we will get the person we desire Nothing is ever going to happen Unless we get to light the fire We struggle on with the search Going from one to another Hoping against hope That we will find the one, the other The one person who will complete us Stop our search and our wanting The true love that we search for The love that is forever haunting
