searching

poem by: Peace Jolayemi
Written on May 12, 2013

I've been searching all over
searching the world
searching for something 
that will always be enough

I've been looking all over 
looking for more

where oh where 
can this thing be
oh where oh where can my search be

my heart beats as fast as a mouse sneaking in the house
oh it makes me feel i can faint anytime
without my search

i have been looking for love
looking for friendship
but all I get is an hopeless search.

o where oh where can love my search be?

I can certainly relate. Sometimes I feel like I don't even know exactly what it is that will make me happy. Honestly, I think that's my problem, I'm not happy with myself..and as long as that's true, I'll never be happy.

I want to share some Scriptures God gives Joy... Happy/Blessed/Glad/Joyful/Pleased .... Deuteronomy 31:29; Job 5:17; Proverbs 16:20; John 13:17; I Corinthians 7:20........ Read the Books of Ruth and Song of Solomon in the Bible and pray and ask the Lord to send you a mate.

Loved your poem. we are all searching, but what we don't know is we already have what we are searching for. we just have to look within. You are the only one who can give you happiness...peter
