I am?

By snappleicedtea

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I don't quite get the mystery of my life Did I ever know who I was Or did I alway pretend Am I an actress who has convinced herself of truths untold Or lies Yet to be heard My heart fails to understand the dimension of existance My soul feels like it is about to burst What do I believe Is there something greater than I Are the heavenly clouds I see the answer of me Oh I don't know how to shine I can't even see with out the glasses of deceit My life mixed in with those of others Who are these people I pretend to be What are they doing to thy soul Must I look in the mirror to see me Tell me who I am Save me from what lies within I am about to fall into the cracks of life The colors surround me So overwhelmed am I by the light that is shining from above Written November 6th, 2001 © on Nov 06 2001 06:25 AM PST, Kelli Miller   18 • 0 • 12
