Not Myself Today

A Poem by Nicholas Duboe

I had a weird day a little bit ago. It was a day I didn't feel much like myself. This is a poem inspired by that feeling. Enjoy and please comment your thoughts!

Not Myself Today

 

I am not myself today,

well who am I?...I cannot say,

then what am I?...I guess okay,

but I am not myself today.


Who am I? I do not know,

I don't think Jason, John or Joe,

a similar looking figure though,

but in the end I still don't know.


What am I? I did say okay,

I'm just having one of those not myself days,

I feel different in one of those not myself ways,

like did I really mean it when I said "okay".


Can I please just return to what I used to be,

and shed this not myself me for me,

then finally look into my mirror and see,

That old me myself me that I used to be.

You're welcome, it worked very well :)
Wow! I really enjoyed this and i could certainly relate to it, almost like it was me talking. The flow was smooth and the choice of words were perfect and very down to earth. You caught my attention from the start and never lost it.
