Search For Change Poem by Woru Sulyman

Search For Change



I have travelled farther than the fastest cars
My cracked heels will testify.

I have climbed the highest mountains and crept in the deepest holes,
My sore knees bare witness.

I have slept in the filthiest caves and seen despicable things,
And yes! my mind is beyond mystified.

I know that no matter what you do, evil self-unveil,
No matter what you think, goodness prevails.

I have seen darkness rule, when all was needed was a tiny spark,
Yet a tiny spark can turn to eternal light.

I have seen dark shadows lurking in the corner of an illuminated place,
I have seen goodness triumph in evil places.

I have walked sideways for years and walked backwards even more,
My discovery is 'the end matters more.'

I have seen countless beginnings and so many ends,
Only that the beginnings are no beginning and the ends no end.

I have seen enough changes
Only to wake up and see there was no change.
