All the wrong places

The thing about love is that
we often need it from others.
Expecting the affection from our family
Needing the agreement from our friends
Wanting the attention from society
Relying on the reassurance from material objects
all things external.

What about the person who has always been there with you,
from the day you were born
through all experience
joyous and brutal?

What about the love within you?
