In Search Of You Poem by Oluwatosin Thomas

I soaked my pen in inks,
Just to put you in words.
I emmersed my head in oils,
All to have a deep thought of your kind.
.
I pinned my eyes in encyclopedia of you,
Yet i comprehend not.
I walked on the path to wisdom,
More confused i became.
.
I sailed on meridor and agriph,
Whirlwind i was chased with.
I traveled on lands and islands,
More lands i met.
.
I visited Nimueh in quest for immortality,
But a fearful mortal i was made to be.
I sought to see your face,
But found no face.
.
I traded my coins for the boat man to see caleach, ,
But Dalmair denied my journey.
I tried all and all,
More alls i encountered.
.
"To see the holes in your hands,
That i could feel the helm of your garment,
That i can be part of the chosen generation,  
A royal priesthood, an holy nation,  
A peculiar people."
.
Forgiveness and renewal of my faith i seek,
To be among the chosen ones,
And not among the fallings.
.
