Talking to Myself by the End of the Year

 

On the Way to Find Me

by Jean Jiyoung Lee

 

Sometimes I wonder if I can read my mind clearly

If I have someone in my life who sees it better than I do,

I would ask him what it can be seemingly

and tell me if that is about what and who

 

Some may say I’m getting closer to my inner voice too gingerly

to live out my heart so true.

                                                               Some others think it’d be gnarly

If I really mean to coo

 

On the day I step forward audaciously,

I'll have found the long-lost clue.

Hoping that I understand the answer perspicaciously

I dream of the missing piece that I pursue.
