Daily Prompt: Acceptance

Advertisements

 

It took me awhile to accept that I didn’t need your acceptance to be happy.

Your praise was nice but,I knew my worth way before you came along.

You see I had to learn the hard way to find out who I was meant to  be.

I didn’t listen to my gut and ended down on my butt and luck.

The world seemed cold and dark and just plain lonely.

But, one day I was helped up and from that day on my worth has shined through.

So I hope you know now your acceptance is like going back to being a fool.

And well I don’t plan on going back to being a fool ever again.

  1. But the Fool does not know he is a Fool.
    You were not a fool, before… you were simply growing, evolving….
