Everything It Takes, To Be Me Poem by Anita Atina

Everything It Takes, To Be Me

Rating: 3.8


Love and nothingness

Reside within me

I decide what I see


Joy and sadness cloak

Our eyes, in their own way

Everyone is lonely


Why should I seek another

Mirage that shimmers away

The more I yearn and long


My social being might be needy for now

Yearning for you, for love’s chimera

My inner soul doesn’t need you


When I am quiet

I know, that alone

We come and go


So for my journey

I have everything it takes

To be me!
