My search

a poem by Sakthi Ravichandran

It is a long search,
A continuous journey
Up to this second,
In search of a thing
I am unaware of it.

Is it money
Is it pleasure
Is it fame
Is it name

I not sure of it
Yet I move on

When will my search end?
Power and fame will soon vanish
Then…
What is my need
And why am I in search?

A feeble voice form my heart
Whispered one word
Just a single word:
A reward of heaven

It whispered love
That is my need.
Yes, that is my need.
Love is my need
Love is my goal
Love is my destination
My search ends there
