Miles and miles I ran,
fought the joy, braved the grief,
in search of that elusive peace.
Hundreds temple I hunted,
Heaps of knowledge received,
Still I am far away from that elusive peace.
So hard I tried,
but there was no reprieve.
I was still beguiled by the elusive peace.
Defeated, I sat under a tree,
Closed my eyes and felt the breeze.
Finally there he was, that elusive peace.
Standing and waiting patiently,
hoping my inner turmoil will cease,
and I will embrace him inside me, that ever living peace.
