THE SEARCH
She wanders the dark tunnel of life.
Seeking for the way toward light.
The storm of discontent rages
Driving her on thru the ages.
Seeking things that others have known.
Seeking the love she once was shown.
Lightening streaks the sky
Giving her glimpses of other lives.
She reaches out to touch someone,
Only to find that he has gone.
Her journey long and tiresome
She seeks the company of only one
Seeks the one who would fill the void.
Who would travel with her on this road?
Touching the cold stone to be her guide.
No one around to whom she can confide.
The darkness tries to swallow her heart,
She fights it constantly, trying to part.
In the distance she sees the light
For this is her hope, she continues the fight.

In the distance she sees the light
For this is her hope, she continues the fight
a powerful voice.
Dropping by from I Won The Lottery!
Giving her hope that she can douse the storm lantern.
And hearing her heart, she sets off anew,
A capable woman, a woman of worth,
Deserving of all the good things that Life bestows..
Thanks for sharing it with my group.
