Fair to middlin' of nowhere

Now that the new has worn off,
it is hard to remember I’m awesome.
I used to wear it like a crown and smile.
Apparently I forgot one day
and left my crown lay.
I  haven’t felt quite so special
ever since.
I may have become distracted
looking for the awesomeness
in others,
before I was done checking out mine.
I’m to the point with other people,
to just believing it’s there and go on.
Trying to find it can be too trying.
I found it best,
to just mind my own awesomeness.

You know how the saying goes, gotta hold your head up or your crown will slip.  

Hugs, you.

Taking care of your own awesomeness is pretty much a full time job, but you are awesome and you can handle it.

Somedays I wish I could feel this way about myself, my mistakes crowd over me though like a bad cloud.
