ALIVE AND CONFUSED
I wonder if I am me at all.
If there really is a me.
I don't seem to exist as a person anymore.
Did I ever?
The original nobody, but, somebody's child, daughter, wife, mother,
sister, widow.
Nobody of my own.
Non existent.
Only an extension of other peoples lives, existing only in their lives.
So I ask myself where next?
Who am I really?
BUT
You're in my life,
You're in my head, and in my heart , and in the air I breathe.
Every conscious moment is filled with you.
I wake every morning with your name singing in my heart.
I hunger for you, sick with longing, as I breathe the same air as you,
eat, live, share thoughts with you.
AND YET
Who am I?
