Me, in search of Me.....

Meandering through the busy streets
Rushing from shop to shop
Wanting very badly to find some object
That connects with  Me.

In an ocean of people
i find myself gravitating almost like a magnet in slow motion
Towards the Ones'
That connects with Me.

Visiting new places, temples,and monuments
Running away from my work place/ home
I am quite desperate to find that somewhere
That connects with Me.

Aren't we all looking for that something, someone, somewhere.....
That connects and  pleases the Me
But have I in the first place understood the Me.
"The one" I so want to please?

It isn't going to be all that easy
we are conditioned by society to look outside all the time
The only time we probably get a whiff of Me
Is when we are in deep sleep (when the ocean of thoughts are taking a break too).

Hasn't it been every Man's biggest quest?
most researched and written about by those who have taken it upon themselves.
I am drawn to look inside me.
I contemplate, I meditate, and have started the journey inwards

There, i see Me after a long journey inwards
i run towards her and hug her tenderly
pure and pristine, words can only be, but a consolation.
But I see Me all her glory

I was cradling peacefully in Me's arms
Before the phone started to ring
Drawing me yet again to find Me outside
But yes now I sort of know who I am trying to please.......
