You Know You (poem)

By Luke Labern

And in the end
The truth was that
You knew it all
Along: Don't over complicate.

What was in your mind
Was good enough for you;
What more can you ask
For? Pure and breathing truths.

The "secret", then, was just to
Live, and be open in art;
No one can deny what
Happened. The torture is over.

You were born to do it:
Take great pleasure in that.
Focus on what's real—
Ignore all others.
You know
You.
