Unique and Worthy Mission

Being needy for praise and admiration is an affirmation in itself. It’s saying I need this admiration to feel worthy and loved. True self love is saying I don’t need others to confirm what I already know. I don’t need others to feel worthy or loved. For I am a child of the universe, already adored. I am a child of the universe, unique, with a worthy mission. Danny G.

Needy for Love (Poem)

Stacey was a kind-hearted soul,

Wanting to make her mark in the world.

Happy and seemingly carefree,

Perky and everyone adored her.

Though she was upbeat at first, 

She craved attention 

And affection,

So much that it became her only obsession. 

Her dad was a drunk,

Would get home from work, 

Drink all night long.

Though she loved her dad, 

As he was fighting his demons inside,

She knew there was much more to his disguise. 

The more she craved his attention, 

She felt empty inside.

She had this obsession, 

For a man to love her 

And guide her path.

She became needy for love,

Outside love became her only obsession 

And joy.

She could not stop this obsession, 

Until one day, she looked in the mirror

With a dismayed expression on her face,

And told herself, 

Love is from within,

And knew, her life was forever changed.
