My search

I am not looking for honesty in everyone I meet

I am not seeking integrity in anyone I greet

I am cultivating determination to look beyond fault

I am leaving behind tall expectations in my safe vault

 

I am not looking for candor in every friend I make

I am not seeking ingenuity in relationships for the sake

I am fostering a nature wherein I offer forthrightness

I am looking at my own life reflecting openness

 

I am not looking for impartiality in every of my dealings

I am not seeking empathy or reciprocation of feelings

I am attempting to be the person I am looking for

I am wanting to effect basic goodness at my core

 

I am not looking for epitomes of rightness and perfection

I am not seeking archetypes of sensitivity and affection

I am building immunity to heartbreaks and disappointment

I am consulting my own self nowadays. Only by appointment

 

I am not looking for excellence in every task performed

I am not looking for sympathy for each loss mourned

I am learning to forgive and absolve the world of culpability

I am looking inward to improve my personal capability
