I Am... Do Not Know Who I Am. Poem by Driss Ezzireg

I Am... Do Not Know Who I Am.

Rating: 5.0


I am… do not know who I am.
A fool in the guise of something wise?
A scarecrow in the crowded fields of mind?
A sorcerer with no tools at hand?
A wall of silence?
A shout with no violence?
A born stubborn?
Darkness's haven?
I am… do not know who I am.
A treacherous stab at the back of the hereafter?
A longing for a return to the womb?
A longing for a return to the tomb?
A worse answer to my solitary cancer?
A lone dancer in an ghostly theater?
I am… do not know who I am.
I am….do not know where I am.

The search for identity. A tough one. And for many never ending. Often times it's easier to rule out what we're not before we start taking on who we are. An interesting piece
