Who Am I Poem by Deepak Calyampoondi

Ask your self the question,
for we're all filled with emotions,
The reason for your true birth,
on the very lands of our earth.
an often seeked answer,
who am i?

Why born on this stage? ,
some seek the heaven's gate,
wide open it is, to those who don't hate.
give love to all,
and you will never fall,
Yet the question that ever haunts,
an answer is all you want.

Not so simple the answer is,
for the simple question it is,
For we are all given a name,
Yet not knowing yourself is such a shame.

In times of Darkness you see a light,
which makes your life often so bright,
But never fail to ask,
why are we to wear a mask? .
So ask yourself several times,
that question..who am i?
