I've been Searching for myself
all these years
trying to become
the person i thought i should be
there's so much pressure at times
with comparison and wanting acceptance
i hadn't even realized
the underlying frustration
of trying instead of just being
Do and see what appeals to me
not for what others may think
but because it makes me happy
Searching
yes, i was searching
i no longer am
i realize
ill continue to grow and change
but now from my interests
and i'm my own best friend.
