Stepping Towards Love and Growth

I'm here thinking that Love
should be the answer,

But then
other voices

puff their chests out and 

think that they have an answer that differs.

You're privi to your opinion 

but it doesn't mean I have to follow suit. 

The proof is in the out-come. 

Sometimes, taking yourself 

out of the equation 

helps in the growth 

of perspective. 

I'm not that old 

but age has not restricted me from 

understanding the nuances of 

person to person interactions. 

These tend to be the cornerstone 

of whether one adds to their inner circle,

Or lands on the scale of subtraction. 

I currently can't call it 

for I'm not fully there myself,

and I don't want to rely on such a crutch to propel me.

I've accepted that 

I'm okay with difference,
and am not trying to shut down 

the truth. 

I find my proof in the words of an obstacle not connected.
Who am I to question,

 just,
sit in it.

So I sit here,

trying to decipher the truth and because I love this 

craft so much, I don't feel the need to explain. 

Let us just grow together
especially in this New Year.
