Who We Are

Who am I

Not always been sure

Am I who you see me as

Or you

Am I what I say

Or what I do

Am I what I’ve done

Or what I’m doing

Am I the only person I’ve ever been

Or is there more to the story

Am I my memories

And what if I’ve mis-remembered

If I can’t be sure who I am

How can I know another

How can I come to understand you

For who are you

Surely not how I see you

There’s so much more

So does it matter

How well do we need to know

One another

If we can’t be sure of ourselves

Motives must be considered too

Why do we need to know

Secrets are stored away so deep

We’ll never find them

Hints

Suggestions

Pictures out of focus

Sins of omission

We are reflections of all and everything

People and events and places and

Most of all

Thoughts

We are fascinating

Endlessly so
