The Best Me
Who is the best me?
Is it the one
Whose clothes are always ironed
Who plays the piano
Who loves classical music with eccentric passion
Who supports charities
Who gives help and support
Who values self-sufficiency
Who values good health
Who is usually thoughtful and considerate
Who does not take himself too seriously
I’m getting warmer now
Who sees the funny side of things
Who is vulnerable, thin-skinned
Who is eager to please
Who likes to be liked
Who needs to improve
Is it all of the above
Is it none of the above
Is it someone I know very well
Or don’t know at all, because I try to be someone else
Just be, just do
Don’t overthink
Don’t analyse
Free myself from myself
And don’t forget to laugh
