If Only

Another old “poem".

ME

I try too hard
To be as I want
But wants aren't everything
Be as I am

I want to be good
And clever and bright
Don't bother about these things
End up being right

But I want to be right
Much more than I admit
I want to be wise
Much more than is wise

But I want to be wise
I need to be wise
I must know I am growing
I just must

It's hard to be quiet
To just let things be
But how good things are
When I'm no-one but me

But how do I get there
From where I am now
Do nothing
Do nothing that's all

It's easy to get here
Do nothing that's all
I try too bloody hard
To do nothing at all

Relax, relax
Let all things pass by
Don't worry about nothing
Let go, let go

Let go, let go
It's easy  -  let go
There's nothing to worry
There's nothing to do

But be me, be me
Be me over again
Be me, be me
Forever again
