In the solitude of my heart I look for company <br />In the emptiness I find my friends <br />In the sea of mortals I find myself walking alone <br />I look for souls like me who look for souls …like mine <br />It’s a constant waiting…a search that never ends <br />Sometimes though I got lucky when I met someone at life’s bends <br />But that was momentary nothing lasting or eternal <br />Someone still gives me a distant call and tells me not to stop <br />A voice from no where guides me in directions which no one dares <br />I go on and on in this endless travail, a journey so purposeful and yet so meaningless… <br />The pains, the scars, the sobs and the sighs do not deter me <br />The even so optimist, my soul, seeks another forlorn, forbidden creature of God <br />Who like me is in the search…? <br />Wonder what it will be like when we meet? <br />The suspense, the uncertainty, the waiting, the wail…is no less like looking for the Holy Grail.<br /><br />Alok Singhal<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/search-for-a-soul/
