“Who” a poem

Who?

Who am I really?

Flesh and bone with a face?

Am I what others think I am?

What do they think?

I am where I have been, who I've met,

I am what I've done and said,

I am my parents joy and fear,

I walk, breathe, dance, talk, laugh-

as so many others do

Am I them? Are they me?

I sense the world, I respond,

Thoughts form in my head - Who am I really?

The thoughts I carry? The body that parts the air?

Who is the person neighbors greet,

the person that kisses my love's morning face?

Is there a word, a sentence, book or library

that can say who I am?

I am a brother, a son, an employee, a boss, dancer,

singer, writer, musician, friend, lover...

More than a business card, who am I really?
