by Joy Green
It seems to me I wander
Aimless, pointless
Drifting where the tide takes me away
Knowing that there has to be
A reason out there waiting,
Waiting for me to find it, some day
And when I touch someone
I can almost reach it
Spiralling deeper into the night
It’s hidden like a treasure
In some woman’s kisses
Held captive in her arms, my light
Searching within their faces
Always hoping
Gazing into their warmth, their flame
I know that I will find it
If I keep on looking
And it will guide me home safe again
