It’s just me
mulling over milk spilt
more than a time or two
It’s just me
in a mood
of wishing I were better
It’s just me
being me
bending over backwards
to please
everyone but me
It’s just me
worrying about
where I been
and not wanting
to go there again

"It's just me"  I think it's a process, repeated, and repeated...
Be happy you are you.  I'm sure there are a lot of people you know that are happy with you being you.
I bet it's more normal than not.

Love the write.

Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul,and with all your mind. Love your neighbor as yourself.

Sometimes what we show on the outside is not what is boiling on the inside. This poem is a good illustration of that. Good write.

Lori,
Been there. Best gift I ever got was the friend that taught me we could disagree and still be friends. Well said.

good expression of a rather common set of feelings most all experience, methinks?!
