In Need of Love

I search for love In crowded rooms I seek a touch To lift my gloom Each passing face A fleeting chance To find a soul To hold, romance I long for love To fill my heart To mend my wounds And make a start But love is elusive Slipping away Like sand in my grasp With each passing day I ache for love To heal my pain To bring me joy And make me sane I reach out, arms open wide Hoping for love to be my guide But love is fickle And hard to find In this vast world Of hearts entwined Yet still I search For that elusive dove Hoping one day I'll find true love.
