Searching

November 8, 2007

Under the bridge,
Through the tunnel,
Over a mountain,
And across the Sea
Searching

Under the ground
Through the Subway
Over the Empire State Building
And across the Hudson River
Searching

Under the gossip
Through the sunglasses
Over Hollywood
And across the fame
Searching

Under the looks
Through the intelligence
Over the thoughts
And across the face
Searching

Under the voice
Through the songs
Over the rhythm
And across the music
Searching

Under the shame
Through the guilt
Over the humiliation
And across the failure
Searching

Under the house
Through the kitchen
Over the porch
And across the living room
Searching

Under the earth
Through the roots
Over the grass
And across the land
Searching

Under the muscles
Through the eyes
Over the hair
And across the personality
Searching

Under the fortune,
Through the material items,
Over the cars
And across the pools
Searching

Under the fear
Through the hate
Over the anger
And across fury
Searching


Under the flesh
Through the heart
Over the mind
And across your soul
Searching
