Answers For Me

Answers are never easy when you're not about who you are.

I.

Looking for answers

In all the wrong places.

Been a rebel.

Been a saint.

It doesn't matter.

The answers never come

of late.

II.

The answer I seek

is never there

Do I follow?

Do I lead?

Do I search?

Will this be the answer

to the person I seek?

Or is this quest just me

Looking deep in the mirror.

III.

Maybe the answer is before me

Staring back at me.

Maybe that’s what I seek

That answer?

That's me.

At peace

Content.

IV.

Yeah, that's me.

Never sure

Never knew

it’s all about me.
