Seeking

Often I find myself seeking something. Sometimes I’m seeking space. Sometimes I’m seeking nothing. Sometimes I’m seeking grace.

Sometimes I’m seeking retribution. Sometimes it’s repentance; Sometimes I’m seeking revolution. sometimes it’s a penance.

I’m sometimes seeking forgiveness, and sometimes seeking revenge. Sometimes seeking isolation, sometimes seeking friends.

Sometimes I’m seeking help and sometimes independence. Sometimes I seek attention, sometimes I seek indifference.

I’m sometimes seeking answers and sometimes seeking questions.

Sometimes I’m seeking stories; sometimes I’m seeking lessons.

Sometimes I’m seeking honor, sometimes courage and valor. Sometimes I’m seeking fame, sometimes disdain and power.

Sometimes I’m seeking pity, sometimes I seek respect. Sometimes I’m seeking strength, and sometimes I’m seeking rest.

Sometimes I seek below, sometimes I seek above. but most of all I find that I am always seeking love.
