Searching for you

Searching for you,
I found,
Eternity,
Through you,
I can see,
Through my tempest seas,
And into me,
How every moment,
And every touch,
Has brought me,
To you,
Eternally you,
I hungered,
After you,
In every life,
Through every inch of strife,
To be near you,
I chose any fate,
Thrown to earth,
I clamoured in the Guff,
And called Gods bluff,
To be near you,
I carved through stone,
And every thing I know,
Says I cannot grow,
Cannot go,
 A real day,
Without you,
I need you,
And can’t leave you,
Alone

I stand accused,
My reluctant muse,
Of thoughts unspoken,
And held too close,
Dishonest words,
And bravado jokes

I hoped my poetry,
And attempts at books you see,
Would bring you close to me,
The real side of me,
Always playing with you,
My childhood friend,
I would bend time,
To find that rhyme,
That makes you mine

Am I Kahlil?
Seeking out his cup,
Again,
In another lifetime
Even now,
I wait in vain,
And I knew how to do my thing,
Until I felt your sting,
And went bumbling within,
To find you,

And find you I did,
A million lifetimes with kids,
And every time you hid,
And teased me just a bit,
To let me know,
That I should never quit
And quit I never will,
I know your heart isn’t still,
I know it rustles and shakes,
When my voice breaks,
So, on my knees I’ll beg,
Please don’t leave me here again
Real love is Magical,
Mystical,
Spiritual

I adore you,
And want more of you,
Addiction,
To worship you,
Constantly you,
Everywhere

My pretense,
Is past tense,
Strengthened and weakened,
Leaning over your fence,
I have no defence,
It makes no sense,
Like Incense,
How long,
I burn,
For you,
Everywhere I turn,
It’s you,
And only you,
My Eternal glue,
Now unbounded,
Clearly I see you
