How Do You Know Me? Poem by Amina Ammour

How Do You Know Me?



People think they know me
But I don't know me
People love me
But I don't love me

People believe in me
But I don't believe in me
People understand my problems
But I don't understand my problems

But then they ask me what is wrong
I say to them
If you know me why ask me
If you know my problems then solve them

Wait...
I don't know me so how can you know me?

It's a great poem. I like the way it ends on a note of realisation.
