Know yourself – - - 

Your worth, your feelings; 

Your honesty

In all your dealings;

Your heart and soul;

Your long-nursed goal;-

The wounds you bear;

The loves you share;

Your hurting and healing.

Know yourself - - -

Your desires, aspiration;

Your sweet expectations;

Your nurtured dream

That sometimes seem

Close to reality;

Your wisdom and sanity;

Nor will you sever

Yourself from endeavor

And cause its cessation.

Know yourself —

Your body and mind;

Your ambition dulled not

Nor blind;

Your resolve and power

To stand, not cower,

And by no means,

Left far behind.
