Finding God

oblivious of all around me, the swiftness of the current

 passes me

yet draws me deep into its world as I taste the muddy water

of a land from far away, I become lost in my self

and I become aware of a stream of thoughts, out of control

speaking to me from an unknown source, emotions emerging

from the depths of my soul, a nagging question lingering

pulling at me to question my existence

cautiously I wade into the water, my fear washes away

what was once unknown, is known 

I want to exist
