Searching On... Poem by Kesav Venkat Easwaran

Searching On...



Life one day turned cross with me;
Knew not what went wrong where I lied
My faulty words? Indiscreet deeds?
Things no rosy;
To find out why
I pondered over each x and y
Spent many a day thus thinking why
Days came and left, returned yawning
My search still on; years passing by…

cool poem kesav, i really liked the way you portrayed the dilemma most of us face in life through this poem. please read my poem 'the eternal search', both seems to speak in the same vein for me.

Life is full of uncertainties as we sail across the ocean of intricacy...but as we go on, we came to understand a lot if not all, and that's what we call maturity. Brilliant as ever, my dear friend! :)
