Meaning More
Meaning More
All I need is an idea of meaning,
an idea of purpose for living life,
an idea of something beyond aimlessly being alive.
I need to know my life is worth living.
I need to know I’m not wasted space,
that there is a reason for my beating heart,
that there is a reason for my thinking brain,
that there is a reason for my humanity.
Living without meaning or purpose is useless.
I need to know I can make a difference in this life.
I need to know I can do anything my mind conceives.
I need to know I can push to any end.
I am not useless.
These hands can grab, shake, slap, wave, help.
These legs can run, kick, jump, protect.
These eyes can observe, focus, relax, wonder.
I have my own power in knowing I matter.
My mind can think, understand, protest, grow.
My mouth can speak, inspire, defend, smile.
My body can love, nurture, comfort, stand.
All I need is an idea of something more.
