A Bore

I have to tell myself 
I'm a good person.
It doesn't always
come easy to me. 
I feel the weight
of my weaknesses
and mistakes 
all too often.
At times it gets to me.
This was a problem
in the past that I am
still working through.
This poem is boring
and for that I apologize.
I am not here to 
mythologize myself.
The drunkenness
is nothing worth 
exploiting for gain.
A quiet and still mind
is more focused. 
This is where I am
and where I wish to be.
