Recognizing Me Poem by Monalisa Jena

Recognizing Me

Rating: 4.4


Down on this earth
I'm a but a ghost,
A ghost of my former self
A ghost of my inner being
exploding into the outer world.



Like a ghost of my past
little do I know
how to return to the person
That I used to be.



Nor do Irecognize
the new me at all,
It's scary
frightful for me
to change so much.



In such a short time
Every one around me-

think that I'm sad
My friends don't know
how to handle me.

But how to know
I don't know
What am I?
and who am I?
