I wanted to be wanted....


The void in this life that has not been filled,
Left it's  longing that would not be stilled.

I looked in many places,
Never filled those spaces.

Then.....

I realized the truth one day,

All I ever truly  wanted  is to be,
Truly wanted,  you see!

And then I knew that could not be from outside in,
But rather from my own LOVE,  of  ME from within!

EXACTLY !!!!!   You hit the nail spot on this time.  This is what we all must do, take stock, reflect, fix the bad, celebrate, share and love.  That is the secret to peace and contentment.   Wonderful work!!

LOUD APPLAUSE
   oh you have said it so simply, yet SOOOOOOO well here...I admire your poem greatly!

Don't care what people say
Just follow your own way
Don't give up and use the chance
To return to innocence.

Oh, so very true, and yet so hard. Truly love and want and accept yourself, that is a huge challenge. You have said this brilliantly.

This is a great shot in the target kid.No bullsxxx
I had to realize this the hard way, but
once I did all things came to me.
A love found me (my white dove) just as I am.

love,life.

Joel.

I howl a mournful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel.
