The quest for the elusive

 

  

Uncertainty and adventure fueled him

Love and laughter, constant companions

Lived every moment, no thoughts weighed him down

He lived his dream, he wrote his ways

 

Grey hairs, wrinkles replaced the once bright youth

The sparkling eyes, the brightest of smiles, a distant memory

Pondering the past, drowning the regrets

Why became the most used and thought word

 

The colossal catastrophe evolved to

A modern day, delusional, confused self

entangled between commitments and wants

suppressed, miserable and disturbed

 

Certainty and peace, he craved

All the whys staring at him at once

the bruised back loathing the bumpy ride

the tormented mind, still searching, searching for the elusive.
