Who am I?

Who am I? I wonder who I am. A wanderer? I heard a lot of mouths yelling so. Water? Dancing around with its own flow? A patient? Lying in his bed to die slow.

Who am I? 


I wonder who I am. 


A wanderer? 


I heard a lot of mouths yelling so.


Water?


Dancing around with its own flow?


A patient?


Lying in his bed to die slow.

I wonder who I am.


A son, a friend, a lover, a brother?


Who am I?


Someone unknown even to my mother?


 Wait!


 Let’s cut all these philosophical crap 


This time I ain't falling on any wordy trap.


I can't live anymore with this unknown me 


Oh please!


Make me believe I form I can be free.


 


I wonder who I am.


 Help me, my mate!


Just cut me in pieces,


Peel me down to ashes,


Tear my chest apart 


Examine on my lunatic heart 


Do all that can be done


To find what 'I' do behold


 


And whisper slowly in my ear 


Before a bigger question on our identity is here.
