PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Searching, walking, ever wandering. Stumbling, groping, ever climbing. Devouring, seeing, ever starving. Surrounded by all, ever alone. Given all, left with none. Wasted chances spilled on the ground. Under the water, cleansed of sin. Rise up, shake dry, and try again. Searching, running, wandering lost. Fingernails scraping to scramble up rocks. Restless, tired, eyes ablaze, hunger drives onward, taunting its prey. Higher and higher, energy lost, goal forgotten, obsessed with the task. Top of the hill, empty horizon. What was the quarry? Forgotten and dead. Hopeless, tired, cold, and mad. Slide all the way down, and try again. Searching, wandering feverishly. Ever finding nothing, and trying again.
