Become myself

Become myself
written July 24th, 2021

I say I want
to be a better poet

but I am also stubborn.
I don't want

people telling me
what my poems should be.

I want my poems
to become better

at being me. I write to
become myself.

Love the song "Become You" by Indigo Girls, though when I read the lyrics, it's really about a very different topic than this poem. Just a light little one.
