Tenderness and
Freed emotion,
Drifting in direction to find its fulfillment
An ageless pursuit
Not one but through many lifetimes
Here nor there
The “treasure” is never claimed

Like two way traffic on a one way street
Lost, and out of control
Never to find the way
Dead ends and detours
Delaying the ultimate arrival
Where is my exit
For these feelings I long to share

Believing this day will never arrive
Perhaps the only way
To truly end the journey
Is to veer from the road
Letting this pipe dream die
Like me

So beautiful, I can relate, many times I have been lost and I never gave up. Maybe that's why I'm here today. --Kaosu
