I'm looking..
in the star's messages
in my heart's answers
in my mind's questions
To try and find anything that means anything
I know it's out there
And I will find it.
Somewhere,
Some day.
I just need to let my patience grow
As much as I hate to.
Because it's out there.
Whatever it is.

Thank you so much! And I think many people have these feelings but just aren't sure how to express them!

This is so optomistic it hurts, in a way. You're just striving for whatever's coming to you. You have no idea what it may be, but you'll be ready when it shows up.
