LOVE: The Answer to ALL Questions?

For years, I have searched for love
Always feeling left out of it’s reach
I wanted it more than life itself
But from me love found a way to escape

Even if Nancy Drew I had been
Or if I was given love’s location
Even if love had tripped over me
It still would have slipped thorough my fingers

I first looked for love in my family
Then I reached out to my friends
But even though they sent me much love
Somehow I couldn’t receive it

I then turned my search to other places
And soon found myself trapped in addiction
I retreated to my fantasy world
But love was nowhere to be found

So I went across the country
On the other side of the world
Knowing love had been far from me
I found it was still further than that

I came back dejected and down
I found a therapist or two
Receiving many answers from them
But I still I didn’t feel loved

When that didn’t work, I was frustrated
Nothing could give me what I wanted
I knew love was somewhere, but where?
I thought it was somewhere out there

But is was when I was left all alone
With nothing outside to distract me
And no place where I could seek love
That by accident I looked within

It was painful the first time I entered
I had never been there before
The halls were hollow and empty
The chambers were rusted and dark

The deeper I went I came to a room
The energy pulled me right in
As my hand grasped the doorknob to turn it
I felt a rushing sensation

I opened the door and was quickly engulfed
By the elusive feeling I could never find
Behind closed doors it had been trapped
I never knew from myself I had kept it

I started to weep, my desire fulfilled
It was never without, only within
For that is the one place love can be found
An infinite source of strength we all hold

Keep up the GREAT work that you are doing!
Keep Loving Yourself!
All the answers to all of the questions is LOVE!
