We all need help
Don’t we
Do I like someone
Am I scared of this or that
Is he the one
Do you hate your job
Just look it up
Google it
And you’ll get the answer
The answer is in
The tarot cards
The astrology reading
It’s in the way the moon
Is positioned
It is somewhere else
Outside of you
Somewhere far away
It is not however, exactly where you are in this moment
It is not in the unraveling
Of life itself
But the for sure
100% answer is in the internet
Or maybe in that new guy you met
So we search
And we search
And we find some satisfactory information
But we never find
That thing we are looking for
So we keep looking
And hope that in some place
Some book will tell us it’s okay
Maybe I can look him up
That boy from long ago
And that will fix me somehow!
The emptiness
The craving
The fear
To just be
Whoever we are
And feel whatever we feel
But, oh what if in the looking
We’re actually keeping ourselves from finding
The message in the hiding
The beauty in the silence
Or a new distraction! Oooooh!
That thing you find that strings you along
The rabbit hole
Outside of yourself
Maybe
The only place
That is real at all
Is everything in front of me
Is every single thought
Emotion and pain that courses through my body
Maybe
There’s no answer
Baby
And maybe
I just need to be okay with that
