Unattached

I had to learn to be unattached
Everyday was a battle I had to fight
Fight for peace of mind and freedom

                       Everyday my mind would take me places,
Places I never wanted to be,
Places of sorrow, places of distress
Places I would be left wondering why
But it was all because I was too attached

Attached to wanting to figure out everything,
Every little word, action or attitude I got
Focusing on what was around me,
Rather than what was within me
And all this to be solved it
Wanted me to get unattached to my surroundings 

So I awoke and told myself
I will nolonger focus on the outside
But rather the inside
And start feeding my mind from my insides
Hard as it seems but still had to,
Getting in touch with my inner being
Made me feel again the real me
The real lady I am and what I am made of.
