To Be Loved ........ A Lesson

So many years of searching for money,

women, positions of power, ego, etc.

My essence voiced through the

whispers of my soul, year after year,

calling me to come home,

to embrace the me unknown.

Years searching…playing at life,

faking, cajoling, deceiving, etc.

only to discover that nothing

else mattered when I looked inward.

Seeing for the first time,

it was me being sought.

Found, now I am the beloved.
