why are we so obsessed
with fixing ourselves
or finding someone else who will
we're not puzzles
or riddles
or broken
we're not really lost
we're wandering
we are travellers
we're neither things
we are human
we are feelings
we don't need someone to
complete us
or fix us
stop trying to convince yourself
that you need for someone
to replace that loneliness
darling,
light a fire
and let yourself feel the warmth
