I forget about not seeing the whole me,
or the me that others see.
It's fun to imagine who it is others see,
but I might not like that other she.
Who is she and what does she do?
Is she the one that is Mother Earth?
Is she the one that is Miss Efficient?
Is she the one that is Miss Clean?
Is she the one that is the Chauffeur?
I don't know who the others see.
There are so very many parts of me.
I don't even know who I am day by day.
Just don't let any one me get in my way.
I have so much I need to do:
I have four sons to raise and grow,
I have a huge house to keep and gardens to tend,
I have a husband who thinks he's my fifth son.
I have friends who look to me to help them in the end.
I don't know who the others want:
I cannot keep up with all I should do.
I don't know what I'll do today.
There are so many people in my way.
What about the me I want to see?
The me I want to be?
The me who wants to be free?
The me who will come to be?
Will I recognize her in the mirror?
Will my sons still love her?
Will my husband still be there?
Will my friends still want her in their lives?
Will anyone still recognize who I am?
Yup, I will.
Since I will be the me I want to be!
That is the most important me to be!
