Guiding Star

 In pursuit of my purpose in life,

I look for your kindred spirit.

Like a lost bird searching for its nest

In an unsettling tempest.

You reside in my heart. 

In ways undeciphered, 

Making it the sacred shrine. 

I worship it as I adore You. 

Like a Devotee in love.

My heart went astray, 

My Soul became Yours. 

I knew not when you became my guiding strength.

My heart was astray, my soul yours.

I am now transformed.

Awakened, I smile as I look up at the stars

Like a Pole Star does not let a vessel sink,

You guide me through Life

In the quest to conquer all answers I seek,

You taught me to look within myself.

Hence, my soul was purified and transformed 

Like Paradise in Your presence. 

For You guided my Spirit 

Like a Polestar does, 

To stranded Vessels. 

But the Quest for my soul, 

To feel you around, 

Kept me awake until it dawned;

Awakened, I smile, for now I realise 

I looked everywhere for You. 

But I forgot to search within me. 

The answers to all questions. 

Your presence and existence, 

Was always in me, where 

You truly belong.
