i feel like my best self

i feel like my best self
when i am outside
when i am with the trees
when i am with the sea.
when i am flowing,
in flow
in formation
in flux.
when i am changing,
ever changing
with trust.
i feel like my best self
when i have an idea
when i follow through
when i do the things i say
that i wanted to do.
when i say yes
when i say no
when i say what i want
when i move slow.
when i’m pausing to breathe
when i know i can be
a little crazy scattered indecisive and lazy
a little unmoored and entirely me.
