Upon relfection
Twisting and turning
and pushing and pulling but
what if it breaks?
How durable are we
really?
You'll be proud
I'm learning how to be wrong
How to be imperfect
How to be me.
It's exhausting
Sometimes I wonder if it's all worth it
But not for very long.
As soon as I laugh
I'm back at it.
Flubbing up,
accidentally interupting people,
being rude,
only scoring average grades,
taking it all way too personally.
But it's good overall
Because now I know
It's okay to be wrong.
To trip over nothing
To say the wrong thing
It's not that big of a deal.
It's even okay to get laughed at
Not knowing the right answer
Is also okay.
If you're unsure of yourself
You have all the more reason
to speak.
