Scars of the past
Healed or hidden
Have they become a habit
No more seeming odd
Fear of the future
Past turning out unexpected
Expect the unexpected
Cliche most quoted
Lived long enough to know
Life not linear
Doesn't want it predicted
A rule book to live by
Pages empty or erased
Confused the writer
Replies questions with more questions
Thus is born the seeker
Not in search of the answer
Tracing the question paper
Begins to understand life better

Question and Answer
Similar in nature
Mirage on the inside
Searching for its reflection outside
Illusion equally deceptive
Answers the Mirage
Fooling you into thinking
That you have the right perspective


Quest to find water
Standing in the middle of the Ocean
Not a matter of perception
Ocean and the standing
Both are unreal
Quest to find the quest
The ocean and the I
Will cease to exist
