Annoying Neediness

Sometimes I am annoyed by the children
Who are needy and want approval because
They remind me of me - needing acceptance,
Wanting attention - negatively and otherwise
In the form of "That's great!" or
"Try again!" or "Keep going!" and
"Keep your chin up!"

What I really want and I believe they do too
Is the feeling of freedom that comes from
Just not caring, but caring enough to know
That I don't care what people think about
What I say or don't say or don't do or do!

What about you? What will you do with this
for you?
