The Golden Thread

Love, acceptance, fulfillment
Is not outside of you
This can be a hard truth
Because we want the people we love
To love us the way we need
We want so badly for them to heal our wounds
To say the words we need to hear
And sometimes we take desperate measures
We shout, we claw, we cry
To get them to understand

Stop all this
We have somewhere along the way
Believed others have the power to make us ok

No
We were born absolutely perfect
In need of nothing
Look within
And remember this
