Everywhere, You

Ehsan Sehgal

I follow someone
With that hope
Maybe you are there
You come
With various faces
To chasing me
To judging me
Or to teasing me,
I cannot figure out
Who is who,
But I feel
Everywhere, You,
Occupy
My heart and mind,
And merging
Into my soul
I ask myself
Who are you?
What do you want
From me?
I hope
What I follow is not wrong
You are
Whom I am waiting
For my life
To living forever
