The Longing

The longing envelops you, holds you close, never lets you go. But what is this eternal longing that keeps us ever searching, will we ever really know?
Could it be love? Could it be the warm embrace of another's arms? The feeling that you could come to no harm?
The longing, what could it be? It keeps us searching, but will we ever really see?
Could it be the search for great wealth? This that we put before our health.
Is it the longing to feel really known? To feel like you've finally found your home.
It's this unknown longing that keeps us going ever searching, but never knowing.
