I’m not who I want to be
I feel the incongruence
Deep within my soul
The goal is not perfection
But a more integrated self
In which my stated values
Match my lived experience
In which I live freely
From who I am fundamentally
In which I know who I am
And love her unconditionally
I’m not who I want to be
Yet I’m putting in the work
To mine the depths of my soul
To discover what’s present in my core
To release what doesn’t belong
And refine what longs to shine
I don’t want to be someone else
But a truer version of myself
Each day I’m becoming
More of who I was created to be
More of who I want to be
