Seek and you will find.

by Peter Duncombe   Sep 29, 2011


Those days of eternal night that shrouded my soul with darkness,
Are now but a faded memory and replaced with warm sunlight.
That veil of sorrow, which once consumed me, has been lifted up.
As if a mist of uncertainty and dread were removed by her tenderness.

She came into my life, stole my heart and released my spirit upward;
It soared beyond unhappiness and sadness, reaching heights I'd never known.
I felt like a young man once more, my innocence trembling with anticipation.
Yet safe, knowing she was there, to guide my uncertainties forward.

For you my friends, whose lives seem an endless struggle for contented love,
Reflect on this once unfulfilled man of many years and take his words as truth.
For if you search with open hearts, though heavy with despair and pain,
You will find her waiting in the shadows of your soul, like mine, sent from above.
