I Wandered Off

I wandered off carefree

without any fear of anybody

to the high hill and to the shallow seas

i travelled everywhere and rested my feet

I have met the starry night and

met the scorching heat

faced the storms and thunders

and now how terrible i feel

Everywhere i went,different people i met

their colour, thoughts desires and

much other things to state

But i didn't find what I set off for

the perfect silence, the cricket's song

the pleasing trees and nature's love

i wonder if i had lost it all?
