I am a seeker!
I know not what it is I seek, yet i continue on.
Perhaps it is divine,
It will take time.
Trying,
Sighing,
Crying,
I look for answers;
For answers that may not exist.
This I must discover by myself,
I will not find the answer upon my shelf.
However, I am not all by myself.
I have friends along the way,
They help me make it through another day.
And, maybe, maybe one day...
I will find my way.

The author's comments:
I often feel like there is something missing in my life, that I am searching for something I need, but I am not sure what it is I'm even looking for. I just know that there is a hole, a gap, a void, that needs to be filled.
I hope this helps people to realize that though they must find for themselves what it is that is lacking in their life, that they are not alone in experiencing this. This common experience binds us together. Keep searching, and you may just find what your looking for.
