Everything is Looking for Something

This poem was loosely inspired by David Whyte's poem 'Everything Is Waiting For You'. I wanted to write a piece about how it feels to be lonely and wanting to be in love, and I think this poem captures the romantic simplicity of it all. Although love obviously isn't as simple or reliant just on fate as the poem suggests, there's something inherently beautiful about believing in fate and knowing there's always something out there, which I think is also key to the poem's meaning.

Creativity to me is the ability to freely express who I am and how I see the world. I also think it captures what makes every individual unique and is not only one's ability to create, but to create in a way that allows others to learn something about you.
