Searching

I am searching
For a messiah made of paper
And a womyn made of fire

I am searching
For a better life
And a lover that's not a liar

I am searching
For someone devoted
And someone as angry as me

I am searching
For artistic freedom
And someone to share it with

I am searching
For a voice
And someone to listen to my songs

I am searching
For a ghost of a memory
And a scent from flesh long gone

I am searching
For a perfect one
And a mistake

I am searching
For someone like me
And different enough to have philosophical discussions

I am searching
For myself
And an unabusive soulmate
