Seek Me Not
Seek me not, where the seabirds fly,
Or tempest ocean crashes to lonely shore
Do not look for me on a windswept cliff
Or where caverns sing, or rain will pour.
I am there with you, no further than a whisper
Not lost, or hiding behind eternity’s door
So search no further than your own wounded heart
For there I reside, forever more.
