to be or not

to whom it may 
or may not concern

each one of us is
as prefers to
and / or believe
he /she has to be

until something happens
or someone passes by and says
thank you, that’s enough!
or doesn’t say anything at all
just passes by and goes

and so,
why insist, why persist?
why?

better not be as you assume you should be
or how others want you to be
or presume you have to be

you better be!
as it happens,
momentarily
somewhere

since that is the real gift
the only true reward and the most beautiful one of all
when the curtains of the night close down on our daily show

just be
happy
now
somewhere
not knowing why
not bothering how 
you are for everyone or for no one at all!

just be!
happy to be 
nothing more, nothing less
and
come what may
