BeFound

What you find
Is never the 
Thing looked for 
It’s a thing 
But never ever 
The thing sought
That’s what the 
Mind always says 
But when the 
Heart quietly listens 
It can hear 
The whispered wish
From another hoping
To find you

1. Beautiful poem! I enjoyed your use of language and the way you convey a deep message. I couldn’t help but wonder, what inspired you to write this poem? Is there a particular experience or person that influenced these words?

   1. I have discovered that the more you look for love (or anything really) the more it evades you. It’s not that love isn’t there. But when we look for specific types or people we tend to overlook all other possibilities. So stop looking in order to find.

      1. When I was much younger I used to tell my friends that they needed to stop pursuing the person they wanted to partner up with. My phrase was “If someone is chasing, someone else is running.”

         Thank you for your reply.
