Who

Who,

That’s the question.

Who are we?

Are we people?

Are we objects?

Do we even exist?

Who is she?

An object for sure.

And aren’t all women?

Just objects put on Earth

For men’s pleasure?

And who is he?

This man?

Does he hit this woman?

Or kiss her?

Is he also an object?

Or a person?

Who am I?

The shy girl in the corner,

The observer,

The faithless poet.

Am I a person
Or an object?

Do I exist to you?

Who are you?

Are you a lover?

A fighter?

Black or white?

Rich or poor?

Are you an object?

Do you exist?

And does this matter?

Who she is,

Who he is,

Who I am?

Does the way I look define me?

Does her sex define her?

Does reputation define him?

So who are we?

Can that be answered so simply?

And who says who we are?

Do we even know?

That’s the beauty of this life,

We don’t have to know.

We are nothing,

But we are everything.

Coeur - We are the human race, navigators of divine order and biblical disaster for 7 million years, living on a speck of dust in a staggering immensity that despite its size can't hold back our questions in search of answers. I've often had a few myself. Really enjoyed this Coeur. Nice work. Namyh

This was an amazing review, I really appreciate it. Thank you XD

This was a thought provoking read, very pleasant, asks all the right questions and leaves all answers up for personal questioning.
Keep it up!

We are indeed undefinable. This was refreshing, finding something that asks so many questions. Trying to define what's intangible, and it's breathtaking. These are thoughts I have had myself many a time.

Thank you for reading and reviewing.

'That’s the beauty of this life, ~ We don’t have to know.~ We are nothing, ~ But we are everything.'

An incredible stream of questions, thoughts, expressing the need to find Truth. In a sense, by forming your list, you've shown what concerns you most about relationship, about reality, about what and who human beings are.

You've written clearly, used fine phrasing. That four lined summation is brilliantly said.

Thank you for the review ^^

Thank you for reviewing

Who are we? That's the beauty of this piece. Am I defined by my rhymes? Does this review define you? I know it's a little silly to say perhaps but from beginning to end I was hooked, all from a simple question. Good read! Thanks for sharing!

[Cœur]

Thank you ^^
