Becoming ME

A poem

A few years ago
I always kept running
Running from all the problems
all that haunted me
all the negatives I was succumbing to
all that hurt me despairingly;

Searching for the one thing,
that would set me free
from all which afflicted me;

In time, looks like
I stumbled upon it
giving myself time to be me
attaining inner peace and silence
believing in what life has made me,
for everything I have become
and everything I am yet to be!
