Humble Brag
My life, to this point
Has been a series of puzzles
All seemingly different
But in essence, the same
Collected together
They all ask one question
Who am I now?
And who was I then?
For the first half of life
I built a persona
So people could judge me
And see that I’m great
But now that I’m older
I’ve let slip the mask
Learnt from my follies
And embraced my mistakes
The problem is now
That I’m ever so humble
And regret to inform
I’m much better than you
Thoughts
Can you share your perspective without sounding conceited?
