Clarifying my thoughts

Let me clarify my thoughts:  
We love each other, yet I am completely confused.  
I had locked my heart away and sealed off my desires.  
My bank account keeps growing, 
while a sense of peace surrounds me.  
I’ve been smiling every day, never feeling the need to cry out to God for 
protection because I knew He had been guiding me all along.  
Then, suddenly, something shifted.  
I started craving youthful and vibrant energy.  
What is wrong with me?
There is a word for a woman like me,
I am a cougar, hiding behind the AI filters,
What is wrong with me?
I would love to deeply kiss the Dark Horse
Without feeling guilty,
Memories linger; they can stir emotions,
 And rekindling a youthful spirit shouldn’t frighten me.
However, somehow it does,
. Society often overlooks my value.
I embrace my identity,  
I am proud of my heritage.  
My free spirit is my treasure.
