Who Am I? Poem by Nody Matome

Who Am I?

Rating: 3.0


I’m rewriting my story here
What you see is not who I am
This smile is not who I am

I’m who I’m within my heart
This character you see physically is not who I am
I’m not what you think I am
I’m who I am spiritually and within

The way I dress aint me
It may be physically appearance
But I’m not me neither does my self

I must first know who I am
Else
People will always take me as an employee
Not the employer
People will take me as a bicycle not a bike

You may see the waterfall under my eyes
But aint mean I’m crying
It’s because it’s raining today
No tears can determine who I am

Inside is who I am
Outside is just an appearance
Who am I?
