Loved


I feel good.
For the first time, in a long time,
I feel good.
 
I feel wanted
and accepted
and loved.
 
But is it human nature to want love,
or is it just human arrogance
to want to be loved?
 
Is that our purpose in life...?
To find love?
To love?
To be loved?
 
Every day ends with one question.
Am I loved?
 
The answer isn't always the same.
But today,
I felt good.
 
For the first time in a long time,
I was loved.
