Searching For Something

Truthfully, I'm searching for something. 

I dont know what it is but I'm looking for it.
In fact admitting it makes me feel unfit, 
but I know I'm not the only soul in the venterous pit.

Its one I've come to question, looking for a simple suggestion,  but external influence only seems to bring on negligence..
one that makes me feel sick of it and want to quit..

But I wont. Because I know its there
That thing im searching for in which I care. 
A simple goal, at times it takes it toll, but not giving up on it seems to be my role.

I will find you, thing I'm looking for. 
As each passing day advances, 
probably passing by many chances, but I make my slow advances and with each one my life enhances. 

I will find you one day

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist, and I'd love to help bring your story to life if you're ever interested. Feel free to reach out at gm@il : akiracomicart2@ or on inst@ akiraa_artly

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
