You Can Travel Yet Never Find What You Seek

I know many who travel

To find themselves

I know many who

Are on a journey

Of self discovery

They’ve travelled

This who globe

Met many different

People and cultures

Yet still feel there is

A hole in their being

That they can’t fill.

Truth is what they seek

It’s within themselves

But they are so focused

On the external aspects of life

They fail to have develope

An untrained understanding

Or a knowledge of inner self

And introspection

Without any judgement

But spending time

In self reflection and self love.
