Searching

I dream a dream of souless wondering

forever searching for something but finding nothing

 

walking for hours, I'm feeling lost

needing very much for someone to find me

 

but who is this someone you might ask?

that I dont know.

 

I know nothing as you can see

I dont know what I want or what to search for.

 

which brings us back to the aimless searching

searching to be found. searching for the anwser to the question.

 

the question that keeps us going.

the question that keeps us on our toes.

the question that keeps us up at night.

 

at night when I dream the dream that leaves me in a cold sweat.

waking up screaming because I feel so lost.

 

like a toy boat that strayed away from a child.

strayed away into a river, then in an ocean.

all alone in a big ocean.

 

alone in a forest of green.

searching and searching but finding nothing

and knowing you'll never find something

in the dream I dreamed.

I think this is a very reflective prose that does not adopt a quality of remorse or seeking out sympathy. I ....it makes me want to ask you to go for a walk and listen to you for a bit. You would probably have a very interesting conversation if it was with me. lol I tend to say things, sometimes, that people usually remember...... Beautiful Ashlyn. xoxo -Your Mark
