The One

All this time, I have been running in search of you.
With the hope to find you.

All this time, I have been trying to catch you.
With the hope to please you.

Who was I really looking for?
Who was I really trying to please?

The moment I thought I found you,
I found nothing but the real me.

The moment I thought I pleased you,
I pleased nothing but that side of me.

I fell inside a bucket which was at the bottom of a well.
I knew deep inside that I will soon be atop and all will be well.

I was struck by lightening that left me content.
I was pulled back up and felt my spirit chantant.

Now, I understand that I will not find you,
But since you make yourself known to me at every moment and at every place,
I can only recognize you as a One that I am pleased with, the Source of my Existence.
