I am.

This is a poem about identity very simple. We as humans hold so many titles but in the end if we strip down and put on a blank mask, who are really. The word "me" is a blank mask. What does it hold?

I am.....
Not by name
Or by label

I am...
Not by people
Or example

I am...
Not by brother
Or by father

I am..
Not by he
Or by she

I am..
Not by kisses
Or disses

I am..
Not by slang
Or words

I am...
Not by hero
Or villain

I am...
Not by hatred
Or love

I am...
I am...
I...am...me

I am me..
What about you?

I can see a person having that firm stand on what he really is. Its good because no a days many people tend to imitate or be someone they are really not.

well penned. whoever you are behind the mask. ^^
