I Am With You Poem by Deepak Hariharan

WHERE ARE YOU SEARCHING FOR ME, DEAR?
I AM WITH YOU
I AM NOT THE ONE IN PILGRIMAGES, OR IN PENANCE
I AM THE ONE INSIDE YOU
THE PATH TO ME IS NOT TO LIVE ALONE OR THE PATH WITH HARDSHIPS,
THE PATH TO ME IS TO BE GOOD TO ALL
THE PATH TO ME IS NOT TO DISCRIMNATE BETWEEN THE PRIEST AND THE POOR,
THE PATH TO ME IS TO FIND THE GOODNESS INSIDE YOURSELF
THE PATH TO ME IS NOT TO PRAY TO A STATUE,
THE PATH TO ME IS TO LISTEN TO YOUR HEART AND TO BE GOOD TO ALL
I AM NOT THE ONE IN THE SKIES OR THE SEAS,
I AM THE ONE INSIDE YOU
YOU CAN FIND ME ANYWHERE AND ANYWHERE,
I AM THE ONE IN YOUR BELIEF
I AM THE JESUS, I AM THE RAM,
I AM THE ALLAH, I AM THE SHYAM
WHERE ARE YOU SEARCHING FOR ME, DEAR?
I AM THE INNER VOICE IN YOU
I AM THE VOICE WHICH YOU LISTEN AND OBEY WHEN YOU ARE YOUNG,
BUT FORGET TO EVEN HEAR WHEN YOU GET OLD
THE JOURNEY TO ME IS THE JOURNEY TO YOUR HEART,
I AM THE ONE IN ALL AND I AM THE ALL IN ONE
WHERE ARE YOU SEARCHING FOR ME, DEAR?
I AM WITH YOU, I AM WITH YOU, I AM WITH YOU
