Get over yourself.

Those words have been said to
Me many a time, and repeated
In my own off toned voice.
What do these three words mean?
What action is expected to follow?

I have gotten over myself. I
No longer view myself as a
Brilliant gifted individual with a boat
Load of potential and overwhelming success.
The praise has been heard enough.

Nor do I think that I
Am a failure, or someone to
Disappear into the woodwork of society.
I am not the stereotypical teenager
Full of eternal angst and hatred.

I’m simply over myself and my “greatness”
Or my “follies”.  I am content.
I know who I am. Thus why
Are adjectives pinned onto me? No
Description needed. I am aware.

This isn’t a protest on categorization.
No whiny plea for your pity.
Not outreaching to those searching inside.
Nix the theory about me boasting.
It is a passive public statement.

I am over myself.
I'm alive! Barely...I just lack motivation/inspiration/work ethic right now to post anything I write. I have started several stories, monologues, and poems but stopped about half way through because I lost interest. As this piece states I am simply over myself. I don't feel like I need a lot of feedback on my literature anymore, or I just don't care. Most likely the latter. Actually most likely I just don't have time to write anymore. Yeah that is probably it. I'm gonna stop with this memo thing now.
