I Searched For You Poem by Sandra Martyres

I Searched For You

Rating: 4.8


I could not bear
The thought of you
Not being there
So I searched for you
Everywhere

I walked the streets
Searching for you
Asking people along the way
If they had seen you
But no one seemed to know
Where you had gone

I left the city
In search of you
I walked miles and miles
Through rugged terrains
Asking and seeking
But I could not find you

Now I am old and weary
I can no longer search for you
I can only your picture carry
In my wallet
So that I can always remember you
The way you were
When you left

A sad one. The feelings and the agony quite visible in this writing that it hurts, . Hope it's only a poem. Quite an extreme from Cinderella the master piece on Love.

Our search never ends........every one is searching for someone or something..........perhaps our search will end when we will find the Lord..........As Jesus said, 'Find the kingdom of God and all other things will be added unto you...........Good Write'..............

MADAM, , The pathos of loss and failure to regain is depicted in a nice way. I like it. One of my brothers wife got lost in an expedition to Everest, The boy searched and searched, couldn'i find and ultimately settled in New Zealand. you deserve A 10 from me. -Rajkumar
