The most elusive and
searched
We all need it
but
rarely keep it
Seen it in spurts
but
Goes away when hurt
Is it ‘That moment’
‘ That place ‘
‘ That thing ‘
‘ That person’
Or
All of it together!
Is it when I won
Or
When he lost!
Is it the journey
Or
The destination
Is it when I express
Or
When I am silent
Is it when I am born
Or
When I die
It always is at a distance.
I can sight it
If only…….
Too many hurdles to cross.
When I hear the accolades
And rise up to see
if I have reached…
It seems to have moved,
farther.
In the end
I realise
what I saw ahead
was only a mirror
and
Happiness was all along
Around and within me.
