Poem 8: Got to be True

 



Got to be True



I've strived to find happiness,

I knew there was more...

What I've found today

I refused to believe before.




It just couldn't be real,

“That's for someone else.”

Now I've turned from all I knew,

I found no joy living false.




This is my life

Why abandon what I need?

I've got to be happy,

I've got to be me.



~ Now finding peace and joy in the truth

of who I am and what exists
