    Poem - "The Quest"


    In deepest depths
    the hidden spaces
    lingers longings
    yearnings without voice

    a quest of meaning
    yearning for the truth
    distressing and eluding
    nowhere can the quench be found

    not intellect and knowledge
    spiritual seems void
    possession and aimless frolic
    gives no life at all

    but then you crashed in on me
    and changed the world around
    I do not understand it
    you makes no sense at all            

    reason will not be your master
    understanding is not finding
    faith and trust is simple
    this magic cannot be explained

    in you I find myself
    in you is all I need
    in you love has found it's meaning
    in you I have found my rest

    from this futile quest
