Thinking of

Holding unto all I wanted
from childhood,
but didn't acknowledge,
ponder frequently.

desired security, liked consistency,
mostly age not others has taught me,
shown me, gave my strength.

Made me determined to put hurt behind me,
All that I was wrapped up in, keen on knowing,
Preoccupied with, drew me, deceived me,
sat in my belly molded me.

I've  matured, know what I need, should avoid,
is potentially humiliating, didn't add but took
from me. those things,I don't want near me, but continue to think,

Of the future, my best partner, life with him,
importance of connecting, and a host of other things.
