In Search of You

At times in life, when I stop distressed,
To find my wounds, lying undressed;
And pain is all that I can feel,
With no one around, to get me to heal.

At times in life, when I do tire,
Whose company do I admire?
I search in vain, for a lap to lie,
If not that, just a shoulder to cry.

At times in life, whom do I blame?
When fate plays a nasty game.
Best friends turn bitter foes,
And leave behind a string of throes.

At times in life, when everything’s good,
I’m enjoying good wine and delicious food.
Just when I have, forgotten to cry,
With whom do I share this ample joy?

At times in life, when I’m trudging along,
With no one to whom I can belong;
I need nothing, but love that’s true,
Which is why I am, in search of you!

I will make a palace fit for you and me,
Of green days in forests and blue days at sea.

Among the green leaves as they shake
Far down within some shadowy lake,
