Am I Real? Poem by Seth Long

Am I Real?

Rating: 5.0


If you see me then you are not real.
I am here but not loud.
I am silent like a room sealed.

If I was seen I would be called surreal.
I have camouflage like blending in with a crowd.
If you see me then you are not real.

If you scream then I shall not reveal.
I am mysterious which is profound.
I am quiet my mouth is sealed

You could not see me when I kneeled
Me trying to run from this realm is not allowed.
If you see me then you are not real.

I can be anything, a color, teal.
If I walk forever I will eventually find a town.
But they won't know me because my identity is sealed.

If I touch my own arm, will I be able to feel.
But if I don't I wont know if I am here right now.
If you see me then you are not real
I can touch my own skin but now my life is sealed.
