In Search Of...

 
I’ve been in a constant search of enlightenment,
Transforming my environment, changing my ways,
I’m learning to forgive myself and moving on,
So the words on the page may appear with some grace.
But the sole guilt which was once jammed down to the hilt,
Left an enormous void I now try to console,
My fired verses fight versus furious curses,
Where the once profound wounds hounded my troubled soul.
I’m leaving the remorse and the shame behind me,
No more blame games or claims of destruction and wrath,
Instead I look upward and forwards with serenity,
So that in writing I will find my own true path.
I spill this ink and think it will fulfill my will,
Giving me some harmony with the universe,
Across cultures and creeds I now come to believe,
I’ll find peace,
Or at least,
Compose a well-lit verse.
