She was always searching for love,
following so many different paths,
all that were not her own.
She changed so many times she lost count,
her heartbroke until it shattered,
she left the peices there,
and walked away.
She had become a meanderer,
no longer really looking,
just seeing,
not realizing that she had found what she looking for,
in a different form than she had expected it,
because she had wandered onto her own path.
Until she heard the words:
"I love you".
Clearly for the first time,
really hearing them.
She blurted out:
"Why?"
And they all answered:
"Because you are you."

i waiting for love to find me.. Hope it does soon. But, as you said in this poem, searching for love, sometimes, you just forget what you are really looking for. But you keep on searching and even if you find the one thing that you are looking for (love) you fail to recognize it..
nice work here

We both chose the same picture for our writes. Good job and good luck. No need to be sorry. It was stunning!

Haha no need to be sorry

This write was done well, the whole idea of truly being loved just for who you are is great to come by, that is when you know you are amongst friends and lover(s).
Because of today's societies normally push people into saying how they should act and how they should feel, but its nice to be loved for who you are.
Anyways I liked this write, it is beautifully woven into a quilt of words and ideas.
Thanks for entering!
