Longing
What keeps you up making fits of your sleep

Generating electricity that can make you weep

The longing for peacefulness you hope and pray for

So days can be content and at night you snore

What troubles you what keeps you awake

What robs your essence what’s really at stake

What noisy dialogue is twirling inside

That upsets the stability of your carpet ride

Where might you go for solace inside

How can your longing return to a sense of pride

What is the ache that gnaw and grind

What makes you want freedom in your mind

Why do you fear what may become of you

What do you hold dear is it slipping through

Where is the traction of your wanted mate

Where is the anchor of your stalwart of faith

Where is the other half that is part of your team

Where is peace in your precious dream

Where can you go when you’re feeling punk

What is the key that unlocks your funk

What are you searching for?

What motivates you to keep looking?

How do you enjoy the journey?

What provides satisfaction along the way?

How will you know you have found what you are longing for?

What if there is nothing to find but inner peace?

What if it’s all about you?
