Know Thyself
Is it so hard to know thyself,
Difficult to believe in oneself,
Hard to trust yourself,
Trying over and over to know myself.
We all try to know science
When all our life’s reasons are not in silence
Yet we become part of a play
In which we are the actors and scripting the way
Life makes it too complicated to understand oneself
As you become too busy to be someone else
Alas, it is not unknown , that we have all become a clone
A replica of what we see,
And not whom we want to be
I am still trying to be one with myself
Trying to find the true potential within self
Understanding the glass is half full not empty
That I have much , if not plenty
It’s when I can be true to myself
To Know Thyself
