“Know who you are” they say.

“Know who you are”
they say.

and I dont know who I am

probably I never knew.

I search for me
like a man in hunger
searching for food.
or he cant find it,
or he cant swollow it
and when he finds,
he remains a hungry man.

 

trying to find myself,
the frustrating absurd cycle
of defning myself
and proving it right,
has been a long path,
all those acceptances, rejections and defenses

I stop here.

living
pehaps matters more than this.
life must be beyond “me”. beyond “who I am”
it must be bigger, deeper, more important than
our bold strict lines.

because definitions give comfort

but

they are fragile

they expire

as we wake up everytime

and start a new day.

I am your perception.

I look the way your eyes see me

my voice sounds the way you hear things.

I am just a reflection.

If we are friends

sitting infront of you

moving alongside your path

if we are strangers

just a passing by light.

and as I say this

it is being the most liberating moment

of self expression.

It frees me

and it frees you too.

here,
is a full stop

on my way to find “myself”.
