The Search Poem by Sophy Iminzah

Search for something secure;
that will hardship endure
that will warm your heart,
that won't deeply hurt
that won't last as dew,
that will be very true.
(that won't get weak or weary)

search for something so sure;
which is clean and pure
which is forever faithful,
which isn't ever painful
which isn't sour slander,
which is warmly tender.
(which isn't selfish or scary)
