You Know Best

by Ashley M.
(Massachusetts)

The person who knows you best is you.
Know what you can and cannot do.
Do what you can, and try what you can't.

The person who knows you best is you.
Know what you love, and know what you hate.
Love what you love, and love what you hate.

The person who knows you best is you.
Know what makes you happy, know what makes you sad.
Have a little of both to balance when you're mad.

The person who knows you best is you.
Know what you would do, and know what you have done.
Always do what you think is best so you don't misgive and run.

You know yourself more than anyone in the entire world.
And you have a task that only you can do.
You must meet your own potential,
with only yourself too.
