the search

i search
i seek
always looking for the place within
the one that provides the needed peace
the happiness that i yearn for
but it's buried so deep
i only scratch the surface for brief instances
then it vanishes once more

so again
i search
i seek
continually striving to find that inner sanctuary
the serenity
the calmness
the little bit of heaven that will lead to a wealth of possibilities

i'm going to try to cultivate a garden of beauty
within myself
so maybe the colors of the rainbow will be reflected inside
and my perception of the world will no longer be clouded
but will be clear with the endless hope and joy of a newly developed world
