Seeking and finding

I looked in many places
For my answer
It was nowhere to be found

I turned to many
To replace the loss
Of the irreplaceable

I held so many
In hope of feeling
They were faceless and
Left me empty

I began to find solace
In the solitude
Of my fortress

I kicked myself in the ass
And it appeared
Just a glimpse at first

It grew and took form
It blossomed
And I found my answer
In me, of me, by me, with me

And the healing began
